Drill set project.

 My drill set project.

We had to get on Tinkacad. Which is a 3D designing  program on our chrome books. Then we had to design it.

I found it quite hard. We had a paper design we had to copy from with the measurements on it. But trying to draw to on Tinkacad was hard because it was quite different to using a pencil and paper. The angles were extremely had to work out because if you didn't get it right it wouldn't look right. Then we had to send it to Mr Rozska, to print out on the laser cutter.

Then we had to make the main project out of aluminum which was fun. some of the tools we use were Scriber, engineers ink, files, saws soft jaws were used in the vice to stop our metal getting damaged and scratched. To make holes we had to used the drill press. Which i found hard because the drill piece was multiple sizes and you had to stop at the right size which we did get wrong. I think I ended up with 2 size 7mm holes. 

The engineers ink was used for being able to see our scriber lines. We used the saws to cut the metal and the files to make it smooth and level. Once we had this Mr Rozska had printed off us some acrylic pieces that had our names on them and the size of our holes. we then had to glue these on using special glue and my numbers bit of acrylic was a bit bent it didn't glue properly. so I will have to glue it again and maybe stick a peg on the end to make it stick.

I enjoyed making this out of 3d then making out of the metal. will be good for the drill bits we have at home to know what size we are using.
