last week

So last week I don't really remember what I did. The most I remember was launching rockets on thursday and that is about it. It was pretty fun launching the rockets, I launched my rocket and for some reason it started spinning out of control then fly in the other direction. It was pretty cool to see that happen and not blow up at the end. I wish somebody recorded that launch. Well that is all for this week.

The week of nothing

The past week I haven't really done anything. I have made a card but that didn't take long and then when that was done I had nothing to do. Now I am just writing this and after this I will just look for something to do again. Then when I find that I probably won't do it until I'm really bored. When I work on it I wont finish it because I won't have enough time.

Rockets

So this past week I have been working on a rocket. I chose to do the Alpha, it was pretty easy to build. Even though for some reason we had to sand some things which made no sense. Other than that it was really easy. After we put it together I painted the rocket, it looked nice until Jason told me that the white was clear coat. It wasn't clear coat it was just white, so now I have to repaint it.

Hovercrafts

In the past week we have been making hovercrafts. I have been doing it with Austin, Logan, and Kyle. We changed the original design because it didn't look like it worked. Our new design works but its a bit heavy on one side. Even though its not balanced it still works, but nothing is really connected.  Then today i even made my own little one. Its not that good but it makes a good fan. I also figured out that the fan blades hurt if you shove your finger in it.  (but it was still funny)

Here is our actual one

Here is my little ghetto one

Kites

This last week we have been doing kites. I was gone for a day so I didn't have much time to find a design. After a while of searching I finally found one. At first it looked like it was going to be complicated, but it turned out it was a really simple design. It was called a sled kite. The hardest parts was trying to get the cuts lined up so it matched. That was pretty much it for last week and I shall have more stuff to talk about next week.

Flight

In the last week we started to make paper airplanes. I made a couple of good planes that flew really well. The only bad part was that none of them would work during the competition. One of them had amazing hang time, but it didn't want to work when I wanted it to do. I tried making a plane that would work amazing but it was to hard to make. Actually most of the good planes I found it was really hard to do all the folds on them. So I guess thats why they are supposed to be really good. At the actually competition my planes didn't do that good. When the planes decided to work the competition was already over. Well thats it for this week so I'll see you next week.

Child Labor For Free!!!

So this last week we have been trying to raise money for project make. I couldnt find anything to do so i searched the back room to find something. I found a lot of stuff from computer parts to air freshener. I even found some old vcr tapes. The funniest thing I found was vrc tapes that taught you how to read. I dont know why but I thought that was really funny. Other than that there wasn't much in there. I did find a bunch of cassettes, a lot of them were from the 80s and 90s. I never heard of any of the bands before and I would've listened to one of them but I couldn't find a tape player. That was pretty much for this week. I'm still looking for something to make so I can make the class some money.
