A Robot

Paddy

My project as you can see is a robot.

The materials I used are as follows:

  • 2 rolls of tin foil

  • 6 boxes

  • 1 pritt stick

  • Pva glue

I had to measure up the boxes to make sure that the arms were

the same length and that the arms were the same width.

I covered the boxes in tin foil.

I feel good that it is finished.

I would like to thank my mammy for her help and my sister Tara too.

 

A Guitar

Hi there.I’m Rubin

I made this guitar from an old guitar that I used in a game.This is called UPCYCLING.

But I didn’t make it all by myself-my dad gave me  a hand and I would like to thank him for helping me.

How I made it:

First I made the frame with my dad we got lots of wood and cut it in certain paces so it would fit together, then we screwed into place .

After that we got the wool and started weaving it was hard at the start but then it got easier

We used the comb to tighten the wool so it would look tight .
