Planner
ReflectionThis week's goal is to produce woods that are ready to be shaped into the designed toy/game. 1. what did you do? I cut my wood that was originally 150x5cm to 14x5cm. I cut them using an electric saw. Then I proceed to use a traditional saw to cut the wood in half. However I did not complete this task because it was too difficult to cut 5cm thick wood, and i needed more time. I also sanded the wood (the one that is 14x5vcm). This is to make it smooth. The skills that are used for this week are sewing and sanding wood. The quality of the wood that was cut smaller is great because it is straight and neat. My plan for next week is to finish cutting the wood into half so i can start painting it. I modified my plan because I worry that I need more time. |
week 2
REFLECTION
what did you do? this week, my goal was to finish with coating until the woods are completely smooth. I coated the wood and then sand it again to make sure it is completely smooth. I also trimmed the edges of the wood with an electrical saw so it is safe for kids to use. This is the final step for this week, since next week will be used to finish it up. The plan for next week is to cover the wood with fabric, and paint the wood. I also have to start making the softballs. The skills that are used for this week are sanding and coating. The quality of my work is based on the work I've put in, and it came out satisfying because the wood have accurate sizes with the one in my planner. I think it is most challenging to cut the wood since it is very thick, the electrical saw needs a bit more push from my own arms to cut through the wood. Smoothing out the edges was hard too because I have to be careful not to cut other parts of the wood. I am still continuing to follow my planner, but I fear that I have to make some changes since the next process would take me a very long time to complete. |
