Hard Materials

2009 Pukekohe Intermediate Hard Materials. We attend this class every week Day 5 period 3 & 4 .Hard Materials has changed over the year the school has bought new tools like saws, glue and hammers for our class room project Mr Sibley is the hard materials teacher.

Our latest project is the plastic key ring. First you cut your pieces of plastic then glue it. Wait for 5 minutes so the glue can dry.

After the glue has dried you put plastic in the vice for 10-15 minutes.next you take your plastic out and sand it with the sander.

When you,re finished sanding you drill a hoe in it. After that you sand it with a special waterproof sandpaper you have finished your plastic key ring.

It is a great opportunity to work with Mr Sibley's Workshop. Ive enjoyed the project and I am looking forward to term 2.
