Making switches is really fun. It requires a lot of creativity. To make switches you would have to make something with tinfoil on touch another piece of tinfoil. We could use cardboard, Straws, popsicle sticks, tape, rubber bands and hot glue. We had to make 3 switches. Eventually we will play a game with the switches.

Blog post #4 – Soldering

Soldering was very different then I thought  it would be. The solder smelled really weird. For soldering I had to put a 842º thing on my wires for 15 seconds, then I would use another wire spread the solder out. When I finished that I had to let it cool down. At last I had to sand it. The soldering. Unit was really fun. I liked using different tools to accomplish my soldering.

Blog post #3 – Making my wires

After choosing my idea on vecanator, I had to make the design with wires. I choose a gold wire over a silver wire. It was very hard to shape the wires the right length. It was also challenging when I would have to put a wire over another. I had a lot of fun using the tools and making my wires. I’m excited to solder.
