I looked at wills project i like how he made the letters rotate and move around the screen it reminded me of a cartoon when the letters look like they were thrown onto the screen and eventually spelled the name of the cartoon or in wills case he spelled his name overall good project

Breadboard circuits
My breadboard circuits worked very well. My first led burnt out because I grabbed the wrong resistor but other than that everything went very smoothly and worked well. I had to catch up on the first assignment because I had forgot about it but caught up on it and then did my current project of making a parallel circuit and it worked great and I tested it out by taking the LEDS one at a time to make sure the electricity would still flow through the circuit and the other lights wouldn’t go out. overall I had fun making the breadboard circuits. 🙂
My electroscope
My electroscope worked quite well. I used the balloon and rubbed it against a sweatshirt for about 20 minutes and that gave me a lot of electrons to move the tin foil around a lot. I also used an old cookie jar for my container and it was a cool sight to watch.
My reinforced cube
The way I reinforced my cube is different than usual. Because instead of using 2 toothpicks together made another square that was a bit smaller so it would fit 1 toothpick across. Then I put that square inside of the cube and reinforced it that way. So that is how i reinforced my cube
My beam
I built just a regular I beam and it held up very well. But after a while it started to rack then it snapped. That shows if the weight is a little to far to one side it can really destroy a shape  maybe if the I beam had a little more supports on the side they could of probably prevented the racking from happening.
Tech blog post 1
One way i think technology changed the world was boats it helped transportation and evolved the early humans. It taut them how to fish and survive off the water because it is one of the most abundant resource on earth after that it kept growing and eventually into an economy. The way those boats changed were the materials used the shape the height and other things that helped boats become what they were today. The first boat ever built was a hollowed out log. It was very unstable because it very skinny and long and also it didn’t perform well on the water because the bow was just flat no curves no nothing so it would push a lot of water thus making it very slow.
Capstone Post #2 – Interview
Now i am starting to write my questions for my interviewee and i hope things are going to go alright now i am ready for my interview and i was interviewing my uncle. The reason I was interviewing my uncle is he is easy to get to and I know him very well. Some of the things I learned were you have to grease the reel every week and take it apart once a year and you can catch a fish on any reel.
After that i thought i had finished the interview but I Had 5 questions which was not enough and these were my first 5 questions  How do you think the spool has changed overtime
What high quality materials would be the  best in durability for a reelÂ
How do you think the handle has changed overtimeÂ
Why do you think they changed the look of the spinning reel
 What do you think would be the lifespan of a high quality reel
And those are my first 5 questions after that I wrote 5 more and did the interview over again
Once i had all my questions answered I made sure everything was done correctly so i did not have another mess up and I continued with capstone. One of the things I learned is you don’t stick to the plan and sometimes you have to adapt it to the situation.
Ignite Reflection
The ignite was hard because I had to put it all together and speak in front of a lot of people. And I don´t like to do that. One of my strengths was my favorite slide in the ignite. One of my weaknesses was getting up there to talk in front of everybody.
