This week we have been making our torch
We had to finish our final designs so our sides of our torch could be scanned, resized and printed.
We had a deadline to meet
skills to use
quality had to be high
Once our designs were printed they had to be cut out
then a template was made
to draw around on the foam- so it is not wasted
our designs are then laminated
for durability and protection
a hole is punched in the laminate in a suitable place for the split ring
the first hole is used as a stencil for the second hole
we are left with foam and laminated sides with holes punched in place
we are ready to finish the torches next week- cut holes for the cell, a slot for the LED, punch a hole in the foam for the split ring, stick it together and attach the split ring- a lot to do but the hardest parts are now complete!
