7th DF lesson.

Today Mr Ward cut out two holes in the big piece of plastic, he used machine called 'Dremel'. After what I tried to cut  something on a peice of  wood, I failed the experiment of using the Dremel machine, it's a bit hard to operate Dremel, but I liked this process. 

Here is my pieces that I did so far.

6th DF lesson.

Today we spent a half of the lesson in the classroom. Firstly I did all measurings on the big piece of plastic. Then we went to the workshop and did some work there. Mr Ward asked us to measure 3 pieces of wire in plastic tubes. they were different colour: blue, red and orange. And then we had to braid this pieces. I finished all the work that Mr Ward told us to do for this lesson.
 I'm so happy that I finally changed subjects and I do DF next year :):):)

5th DF lesson.

Today we stayed in classroom. Mr Ward wasn't here today. So we had to do our bloggs and complete some questions on blackboard for our assignments.

4th DF lesson.

Today we worked in workshop! It was so much fun. 

I finished the work from last lesson and the work that we were given this lesson. 

I create a shape for the small piece by heating it using strip heater. Now it's a strange shape, but I really like it.

Now I'm thinking about choosing DF as a subject for year 9 and 10. 

3rd DF lesson.

Today we had the first lesson in workshop. It was so interesting. We started working on our projects. Firstly we had to choose the colour for our cars. I chose green, because it's one of my favourite colour and I think it's a really good colour for my car:)
Mr Ward said that we should draw two details on lists of plastic, bring it to him so that he could cut it out and after what, we would grind it and make holes by the drill. I finished this work except one thing, I didn't grind two sides. So, I'll finish it off on our next lesson.

2nd DF lesson.

Today we had to complete some tests called 'OnGuard Safety Training'. Those who aren't new to school this year, they had 2 tests which were completed from last year, they had to do just one more test and they are all done. Because I am new to school this year, so I had to do all of them. As we finished doing this task, we had some free time.
