Lesson 10

This lesson I glued the gear, axis and wheel onto the plastic body. First I lined up exactly were the wheel would go and then I was ready to glue! I heated up the glue gun and then it was ready. On the side closest to the wheel I put a blob of glue and then quickly stuck the axis down. On the other side I put strips of thyroid glue either side of the axis. This was a good way to do it because if I did to blobs of glue the glue might of dried and hardened by the time I put it down. I then repeated his process for the other side of the body. On the other sidei came across a bit of an issue. The glue and dripped into the gear plate and stick it down to the inside axis. This then made the wheel spin very slow. Time ran out so Mr Andrews said to leave it and fix it next time.
