Tech Reflection

Today at Tech we were doing Putter casting with Mr.Grundy. Some of us were finishing  off our work book and some of us were sanding I am still working on my work book I am almost done all I have to do is add 3 more pictures to my work book then I get to draw one of my designs I picked.

Tech

Today for Tech we have been learning about pewter casting. The first thing that we had needed to do was read the rules for the pewter casting tech room. We were first asked questions if we knew what pewter casting was and what it is. Our task was to find out what we wanted to create and how we will be using it or even who we were making it for. So Mr Grundy had sent us a worksheet showing who we will be creating our design for. The Designs I am making for are my mum, dad, cousin and myself. We chose 4 of each items that we wanted to create into our DLO. But the thing is the images we had chosen had to be silhouette so it would be easier to create. The thing is our images couldn't be thick or else it would bend or snap. I had enjoyed doing this rotation because I would really want to make something special for my family.

Tech with Mr Grundy

Today in Tech we learnt about woodwork with Mr Grundy. He told us to draw 9 or 10 ideas for what we were going to make. I might make a train of a helicopter. There were rules in Mr Grundy workshop. 1 rule was no fiddling, the 2nd rule was stools have 4 legs for a reason, and the 3 one was go before you come, which means go to the toilet because there is no toilet in the workshop!
