power tools

 I have really been enjoying this year I am learning a lot more skills from Mr. Rees and all of this is going to help me with my carrier choice as I am going to take a sit engineering course.

Here are some photos of me using power tools.

this is me grinding down my welds for my can crusher

this is me blowing down the lathe after using it to make spacers for my gear knob

here's me cutting out a bit of sheet metal with a nibbler for a project I was doing.

here's me cutting out sheet metal for my can crusher plates.

gear knob

 This year i have been working on a project called the gear knob this project I started this in week 1 term 3 and finished it in October . here are some photos of my gear knob completed.

overall I am happy with my project I myself think it looks good but i do think there are some stuff I could improve on if I was to do it again. I would make my plates a bit better looking and just for next time I would tap the bottom hole to fit a 12mm bar for my type of car. so yea overall pretty happy with how this turned out.

when is a network transferable

 A “Traversable Network” is one where we can find a route through the network, along the edges, that uses all of the edges only once. A network is said to be traversable when it is possible to start at a “Vertex” (or “Node”), and trace out the whole network without having to retrace over any of the connector “Edges”.

http://passyworldofmathematics.com

when the network has more than 2 odd nodes that mean the network is then not transferable but if it has two or less it will be transferable but you can only start on the odd nodes. then if there are no odd nodes at all you can start from anywhere in the network and work your way around it.

The text above are 3 of the rules in networks all put together in one paragraph following these rules will help you understand about networks and how they work so much easier. I know this as at the start of this network tasks I was struggling a little bit but now that I recognize the rules I can pretty much work through any network so I do advise you to read the rules because it will help you a lot.

Have you got ant question's for me about networks?

four sided shapes facts

 

A square is a polygon with 4 sides of equal length and 4 right angle corners (90 degree corners). Because it has 4 sides of equal length, a square is a regular quadrilateral. A square is also a rectangle with equal sides and a rhombus with right angles.

A rectangle is a 2D shape in geometry, having 4 sides and 4 corners. Its two sides meet at right angles. Thus, a rectangle has 4 angles, each measuring 90 ̊. The opposite sides of a rectangle have the same lengths and are parallel.

A trapezoid, also known as a trapezium, is a flat closed shape having 4 straight sides, with one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides of a trapezium are known as the bases, and its non-parallel sides are called legs. A trapezium can also have parallel legs.

A Rhombus is a flat shape with 4 equal straight sides. Opposite sides are parallel, and opposite angles are equal (it is a Parallelogram). And the diagonals "p" and "q" of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.

is there any four sided shapes you know other then these??

basic mathematical shapes

here are some basic math shapes. 

Circle 

A circle is a round, two dimensional shape that looks similar to the letter 'O'. In strict mathematical language, circle refers to the boundary of the shape while 'disk' is used to refer to the whole shape, including the inside. A straight line from the center of a circle to the edge is called the radius. https://www.kidsmathgamesonline.com

Pentagon

A pentagon is a 5 sided polygon with interior angles that add to 540 degrees. Regular pentagons have sides of equal length and interior angles of 108 degrees.  https://www.kidsmathgamesonline.com

Triangle 

The sum of all the internal angles of a triangle is always 180o no matter how the triangle is constructed.A triangle can always be split into two right triangles no matter how the triangle is constructed. https://www.smartconversion.com A triangle has 3 sides and 3 angles.

Octagon

An octagon has 8 exterior angles. The sum of the exterior angles of an octagon is 360°. Regular octagon: An octagon in which all sides and angles are equal. Each angle of a regular octagon is 135°.

Square

a square is a shape with four sides that are equal to each other and four 90 degrees angles.

Hexagon

A hexagon is a polygon with 6 sides and 6 corners (vertices). Like regular triangles and squares, hexagons fit together without gaps, which are known as tesselations. They therefore are often used for tiling floors. They are also quite common in nature. https://kids.kiddle.co

over all can crusher

 This year i have been working on a project called the can crusher this project i started this in February and finished it around June. here are some photos of my can crusher completed.

I was pretty happy how it turned out but I do think I could of done my welds way better and took bit more care into them but they are strong and working well. Something I really liked about doing this project was the knowledge I gained from doing this I learnt measurements are very important to get right and not to rush your work and take time to get better guilty. If I was to do this project again I would for sure take more time with it and spend more time on my welds.

  

engerning level 2 hand tools

 This year has been very good and i have been enjoying this year more then last.

here are some photo of my hand tools that i have used this year.

This is me with a file and fileing down my work. I am fileing one of my side rails for my can crusher 

this is after i cut out a piece of the rail.

This is me cutting with some tin snips. I was cutting some material for my can crusher. 

this is me using a hammer as i need to bend back my work because i didn't measure it straight and it wouldn't fit in my work but once i tried again i got it to fit.

                this is me using a hacksaw i am cutting a peace of metal for my handle of the can crusher.

WORKING TOWARDS MY NCEA LEVEL 1 WORK

This is the start of my bulldog cut out right now I am cutting out the white and printing it yellow then next I will be doing the cutting of the inside of the flames in the background and I will print that orange and then cut out the rest of the bulldog.
This print will be apart of my board this will be on one side of my board witch will be the dark side and on the other side of my border it will be like heaven.

what i read today ferrari table

French furniture designer charly molinelli has encased the wreck of a ferrari f40 supercar in a coffee table.asked to build a unique piece and knowing that his client was a motor sports fan molinelli approached a friend who worked at a scrapyard that was crushing a ferrari and managed to procure it.

what i have read today shear horror

eighty six year old Leroy from phoenix survived a horrific grading accident when he put down his wire cutters then he tryed to pick them up and slipped and the wire cutters went into his eye and down to his neck half of it was in his head and the other half out of his head he had to have major surgery to it and they said he probably wont be able to see out that eye ever again.he was scared and dint want to not have an eye.so the surgery went fowerd and went on for an hour and he came out seeing in both eyes.

Pbl move to improve

why have you you chosen this project and what do you want to achive?
I have chosen this project because I like getting fit.i want to set a goal of getting fitter then I was before I stared.

I would like to do some running and trying to break my record for 3000 meters and keep breaking it

my goal for move to improve i want to improve my strength for rugby then people cant push me around and i can go through people.

somthing i am proud about myself is that i got 8 and a half laps in 12 mins

free writing

As I was rolling down the highway in my custom r35 skyline I hear another car coming towards me but
it was hard to hear because of my loud turbo charged engine.But as the car got closer i could tell it was
a nissan silvia s15 custom.Next the guy in the silvia rolled down his window and i saw logan from my
high school that i went to he was my best friend.He looked at me and shouted

Caleb.So we pulled over and got out our custom cars and did our secret handshake and then did a back flip.Then we got to talk about what we have been up to since we last seen each other.Next I said so you trying to live up your dream with a skyline because I have I got an r35 liberty walk.Then he said yea i was but my house got robbed a couple weeks ago g they took all my money that was in my bank to.Next i felt so sorry for him so the next day I went to the car dealer and said do u have any r33 for sale and he said yes one more and I said ill have it. Then I went to liberty walk costom and said impress me it for my friend and they said it's in good hands so then I said to them and can u bring it on a truck delivery to 29 blankney street thank you and they said sure we can do that for you.So i called logan and said com around for a bbq and some cold beers so we eat and drink beers.Then we hear a big horn down the driveway and it was the delivery for logan's car he was so happy

poem about wind

On that day my soul grew windward

'Wind!' chuckled I, 'Yes wind!'

Deep into that darkness walking

In a kingdom full of storms

I awoke and flung the twist

Wind - tormentor of my dreams

Much I marvelled the stink murmur

When I thought of the wind

I’ll give you a sentence.  Then you have to take each word of that sentence
and write another whole sentence.

“With great power comes great responsibility”

With….the cat with the mouse ran inside.

Great…quick job done today great now to rest in the hot sun.

Power…brown long hair on a powerful woman with beautiful eyes.

Comes…foxes coming down from the hill to the pool.

Great…we jumped a great big jump and went into the pool.

Responsibility…

Example:

The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog

The forest was really scary when Julie and I went for a walk.  “Quick!”
I cried, “run faster!” Brown hair bobbing, Julie raced towards me.  Foxes were
everywhere, chasing us around the trees.  Jumped and scratched and twisted
and turned, we ran as fast as we could.  Over and over, I heard Julie call out,
“Wait for me!”  The silly girl was just so slow.  Lazy, that’s what mum calls her.
 Dogs barked nearby, scaring the foxes away – and finally, we were safe.

The pool was very cold.so we went in as quick as we could.but when we were running the lifeguard
with long brown hair told us to slow down and be careful because there are foxes living on the hill.we
got to the pool and we jumped in over the water.the lazy siren went on for some music to swim to.then
it stopped and a alarm for foxes came on but it was just some dogs running down the hill.

fortnite gone wrong

It was a good day in the land of fortnight in lonely lodge.Then I heard a big bang and I seen fire in
the sky.I started to run to see what was happening so I could get an idea what to do.I start seeing
bodys everywhere of my team mates and all there lot on the ground.I pick up all there loot better
guns and mats.But i still didn't know what was wrong why my teammates where died and why
it was so quiet.Then I see a ship nothing I have ever seen before I go in and see one big green
monster it was bowser from mario.He was breathing so heavy and looked angry. Then i walked
closer well tried to but then I hit something I tried to catch it but it was too late it shattered on the
floor of the ship.He turned around looking at me steam coming out his nose like a dragon. He had
a mini gun in his hands and tried to kill me but then I remembered that I picked up my teammates
loot from before and had hid around the corner of Dusty Divit got my ar out in my hands and im
shaking so bad scared of dying.So I start to build trying to aim him up with my gun but he could
be aiming me up to so I thought to myself for my friends I will try to fight .So I start to shoot and
he shoots back and that's when I knew he hasn't been here before and I haved lived here all my
life.That's when I play smart and place traps and his health  gets lower and lower but then out of
nowhere i get shoot and my health is low.I am more scared for my life now.So I jump in the air
with my gun and do a 360 turn and shoot him in the face and kill him with a headshot and in big
letters it says you have saved fortnite battle royal thank you and fortnite lives happy ever after.
