Technology Hard Materials

At technology my group and I got the chance to make a necklace for our loved ones. First our teacher explained that we should start of by making a wooden mold for the melted metal so that it can form the shape and size that I want it to be.  When I was done making the wooden mold for the metal, Mr Grundy informed that I should wait for the metal to melt so when it's ready he will call me. In my opinion the metal didn't take that long to melt because it was a small necklace, the metal used to look like a block until it fell into the hot and steamy platform, turning itself into a small, grey,liquidy pool. Once the metal was ready Mr Grundy poured the liquid into the wooden mold. After the metal was dried up in the mold my teacher Mr Grundy took it out and explained that I had to use a sand paper and tools to make my project more smooth and ready to be worn, soon after the bell rang and my group and I had to leave. I almost finished the project and hopefully I will be done next week tuesday.

Technology Hard Materials.

  In technology my group and I went to our class which is called hard materials (Pewter). The class was really fun and the teacher is also nice his name is Mr Grundy and he's very busy because he has to work on helping the students and help melt the iron because students can't do it. Mr Grundy is a wonderful teacher and I hope to see him everyday next year. Mr Grundy teaches us how to make necklaces and i was very lucky because i finished of half of the worksheet that we were supposed to do. I had to shade the shape and outline the shape after that I ended up cutting out the line to make a mold for the melted metal after that the bell rang and we had to go back to school.
