Lesson 10

This lesson when I had gotten there I realised my motors had fallen off and first had to glue them back on (this time with more glue). I then cut 2 of the red wire and 1 of the black wire which Jazmin showed me how to do. Once I had finished that Mr Andrews should us how to connect the wires from the body to the controller. Next lesson I am hopefully going to join them together :D

Lesson 9

This lesson I glued down the motors and the battery at he back of the controller, finished my blog and helped Nikky because she was behind. This lesson I learnt out to stand up the glue gun and how the motors worked. This helped my in my project because we need the motors on to make the car go and the battery at the back to link it up to the motor!

Lesson 8

This lesson was the first one back from the holidays and I couldn't remember what to do so Mr Andrews explained it to groups of people. I got alot done in this lesson. I took the plastic off my body and got my wheels glued on! :)

1st lesson

This lesson Mr Andrews talked us through the basics of making the car and showed us the finished results from other classes. We then went into the workshop and Mr Andrews talked us through the safety regulations. I then picked my colour of thermoplastic for my body (chassis) and my controller which was pink and white.
