week 10 term 3



this week was really bad because we had a reliever who made us to do oragamy. i would rather do practical. i have not done much practical work lately. i do need to catch up on making up some top brackets for my base of the light. once i have done that, i need to cut some acrylic and bend it into a circle for the light to come out.

week 9 term 3

This week has been an exiting week as i have got back into doing my dtm work. i have cut of the tabs off the bottom of the base as i have chosen to use rivits and brackets to hold the bottom of the base in. i have made up 4 brackets out of aluminium and these are going to be riveted onto my cylinder. i have also cut my cylinderin half so it is not as high. The light is not going to be using the big lead acid battery so it looked slightly rediculous with it being so high. i am now going to use 4 double a rechargable batteries.
