Metal project

Today 4/5/2018
I have made a dog tag that says my name on and more things on top of it, it is also made out of Aluminium. And that is what makes me unique because it has what I want on it, I enjoyed this process because you got to make a dog tag with what you want on it, It was fun because we used a lot of different tools to make these
I hope to make more thing in metal because it is fun.
I did kinda messed up when i was putting my initials because i have more than one K on it because i couldn't get the right place for it after i hammered it with the hammer to stamp the name on it.

Tools used to make this:
Buffing machine
Hand saw
Square
Stamping letters
Polishing machine
And much more but i forgot the name for.

We started this in Term 1 Week 5, Around that time. We start it off with a long Aluminium strip that we cut up into 20 by 40 cm. We cut this with a Hand saw with was a little bit hard because you had to keep your arm straight and that was hard if you're hand shakes. Then you we drill a hole in the Aluminium tag. After we do that we round off the corners so it's round and we don't cut our self and then we stamp whatever we want on it but their is somethings we can not put on and rude things. Once we stamp the things that we want on it, we can buff it then polish so it's nice and shiny. When you have made it shiny you can take it home.
