Makerspace by Lily D

Maker space

For the last few weeks, I have been doing maker space with Inayah. We have been making a buzz wire. It is the game where you try to get the wand around a wire that has been oddly shaped, without touching it. If it touches, a buzz atives, until you stop touching it. In week one, we practiced making circuits, and brought what we knew about circuits and electricity. In week two, we tried to make a buzz wire using only some bluetack, a bendable piece of wire, a battery, tape, a small piece of cardboard, a positive wire, a negative wire, and a buzzer. We didn't succeed. In week 3, we had to decide what we were going to do with our piece of wood. We decided to go with an underwater theme, and cut the longer sides to look like waves. In week 4, we found out that underwater was the most popular theme. We didn't change our design as we were the 5th group to use the bandsaw. I got a turn to use it with mr hessian, and it was so much fun! It jammed before Inayah got a turn. In the last block, we used sandpaper to sand our wood. It wasn't fun, but at least we got it done in the end.
