When we go to Tech: Now, as you read from above, Tech is every Monday, we go during lunch at about 1:40 or something like that. We catch a bus (From a lovely bus driver) and head off to Linwood College (Where Tech is held at) we then line up on the court, on our number (We are in groups for Tech, we line up at number 17) And then we head off, to resume what we were doing. We also get teachers to help us through the process (Obviously) my teacher is called: Mr. Osborn. He's really nice.
My first day at Tech, we had to make a die. (The other groups made different things: Wood and food) First, we got handed a sheet, it was basically a circle the right answer you think it is. Then we got handed a plastic cube. (Our die) We had a sheet to mark where to put our circles on it. We then: drilled the holes, sanded the cube, polish it, and then paint it. And that was it (I made it for my grandparents if they ever lost theirs) when the day is nearly over, we go back on the bus, back to school, then to home.
The next day we did the same thing, trying to finish our project.
Second thing I made: The die was obviously not the only thing we made, our other project was... A KEY CHAIN, yes a key chain to make for someone/something (I did it for my dog) In order to do this, you need to: search up an image of the thing you are making in silhouette (Example: Search up Cat silhouette) copy the image, paste it on this doc thing (I forgot what it was, sorry) Outline the image, delete the filled in image, create two outlines of the thing you are making, put a square over it, put the square connected to it, so if you move the cat the square will come with it, save it on the folder: St Francis A7, and then Mr. Osborn will print it on the vinyl cutter.
That was a long one, but we still have more to go.
Then you have to grab this pen with a little drill in it, cut the inside off, then stick it on a piece of plastic that you get, you then, sand blast it, polish it. THEN YOUR DONE!
FINALLY! WOO! That took ages. But it was really fun, creating new things, trying out new things, it was EPIC!
But, when we finish our project, we have to make a phone stand, which I haven't started...
