Tinkercad drill gauge

Drill gauge 
(on tinkercad)

During making my drill gauge i had to learn how to make the hole's the right size so they would mirror the measurements that we were given to make our real life drill gauge.

the steps that i took are displayed below (maybe a couple out of order)
Step 1: the first thing that i had to do was make my solid drill gauge with no holes, the measurements i used for this were 100mm in length and 20mm in width.

step 2/final step: this part was adding in my holes for this i had to set a solid cylinder shape to (hole)


and then set it to its respective size eg for a 10mm drill piece i would set the hole to 10mm x 10mm .

_________________________________________________________________________________
What have i been learning?: how to punctuate my work properly (when i want to) using things such as commas full stop's and other things. yeah cause i didn't listen in primary i was to busy spending my writing time hiding in the reading corner

Shakespeare Macbeth revision questions


1. He visits the Witches for a second time. Why? How does he react?
Macbeth visited the witches for the second time because he fears he might lose his position as king.
(when he goes to them he is scared and demanding answers because he is anxious about someone taking his title as king.)

2. Has he completely lost it in the Banquet scene? (do you think the Ghost is real or imaginary?) yes he has because he is so scared of getting caught that he started seeing things. Like in the banquet seen when he saw Banquo sitting in the empty seat. (i think the ghost was in Macbeth's head and it wasn't really there.)

3. Why is he obsessed with killing Banquo? (oh yeah, and Fleance too) because banquo was suspicious of macbeth's plan and had a feeling that macbeth killed killed king duncan.(and he wanted to kill fleance because the witches said that banquo's son will be king and that was a threat to macbeth's power.(and also fleance saw the murderers kill banquo).

4. Which factor is most influential: (a) Witches & their prophesy? (b) Vaulting ambition? (c) Lady Macbeth? i think macbeth was influenced the most by lady macbeth because macbeth said he wasn't going to go through with their plan to kill king duncan then lady macbeth said she would kill kill a baby to gain power.

5.How does he justify his decision to proceed down the path of evil? he said it was like a vaulting ambition that he couldn't stop

Boomerang

Boomerang

In wood tech we made boomerangs, drew a template on paper then transported the drawing on to the wood. After that I cut the wood to the shape of the boomerang I chose and then smoothed the edges to make the boomerang smooth and round.

what is a drill gauge used for ?

A drill gauge is a piece of equipment used for measuring the size of a drill piece. 
At school in engineering class we made our own drill gauge. Our drill gauge was made for measuring drill bits that ranged from 3 mm-10 mm

what did I use to make the drill gauge ?

Image result for engineering tools
this is some of the tools i had to use 
ruler
engineers square
vernier
micrometer
file 
sand paper
drill press
buffing machine 
hammer during 


micrometer and vernier caliper

these two measuring tools were used a lot during this project for measuring the drill bits and our work.

video link for how to use both the vernier caliper and the micrometer 

drill gauge made on Tinkercad 

during the process of making my drill gauge i was tasked with making a drill gauge with all the same measurements and drill hole sizes, on tinkercad which is a program where you can design anything you want and 3D print it.

below is a picture of my design and a link to the page so you can check it out for your self and use it if you want 


what have i learnt? doing this project i have learnt how to measure using a micrometre and vernier caliper.

Macbeth Shakespeare

king James : so i don´t know much about this lad all i know is he was into to plays and i know he was a bit of a nerd. Along with all that he was a bit gross ya know he drooled over his clothes all the time and he picked his nose (what a lad). So to sum him up he was your local 21st century nerd (that just so happened to be king)
living in the 15th and 16th century



The gunpowder plot: So this was a bunch catholic people that were also mentally ill that decided that they were gonna go and kill king James. So what they done was basically 15th century version of noobs in fortnite. I say that because you had a group of people that were trying to find a easy way to kill a lot of people.

Witchcraft in Shakespeare´s time: Alright so in the 15th century if you went a christian person everyone thought you were a witch. I don´t have anything else to say but THIS IS WEIRD.
