Three piece puzzle

28/08/18

Three piece puzzle:

We made a three piece puzzle but what we did to start it off with was a planing sheet.

We had to rule it very straight diagonally, horizontal and vertical so we know where the middle dot is.

And so after we finished doing our planning sheet we had to do the same thing on the 3D wood we got given from our teacher but we had three wood we had to line up but three different ways Diagonally, Horizontally and Vertically.

After we had found the centre of the wood we had to do three different shapes so we can cut out, and here were the different shapes.

We made this using rulers, pencils and different types of cutting tools.

Tech 2018 T3

In technology we have been working on 3D printing and what we learnt was how to download how to use the website Tinkercad and Thingiverse and Thingiverse take us to a website that you can get Ideas from to make a good 3D print.

Tinkercad is a website that you have to create anything you like and to see how you would like it to look when it comes out.

Here is one of them that I printed

I am learning about what are catchy jingles and to see and hear what is happening and listening clearly for the slogan and what they are trying to make people want to do.

This shows my learning to like to having to liking music and to see what the meaning is behind there product they are selling.

Im wondering if they are still selling all of these 4 products in New Zealand and where to buy it from.
