Tech Reflections

This week for tech I have finish what I need to do was get Mr Grundy to polish it.I have made a mickey mouse.This is for a friend.To make this you would first need wood and trace a pattern on it then you would need to cut it our with the scroll saw machine then you need pewter metal to pour in the mould. Then you would let it cool down next you need to cut off the extra piece so you can file it.Once you have filed it you need to use sand paper to make it smooth.I have done that so the next thing we do is wet sand.After wet sanding I got Mr Grundy to put brasso so that it is shiney.

Pewter Casting

This year for tech we are doing Pewter casting.What we did first was we make a template then he had to print it.After printing we trace it on the piece of wood.Then cutter some peoples template and showed some other people how to do it so thy can do it by themselves.Before he checked some more of peoples work he then melted a pewter metal so when he finish cheaking it will be metaled.Then he get his mold and pours the mixture after that he dose other people because it is very very hot.This is a video that Mr Grundy made on how to make a necklace out to Pewter.Pewter Casting Video
