Lesson 11

This lesson I continued on glueing the wheels, axis and gears down. I had to fix up what I had done the lesson before. I also discovered that the other side on the gears it was to far in wards causing the wheel to rub against the edge which slowed it down. I then decided to remelt all the glue and rip of what I had done last lesson and start again on the other side, clean and fresh! I got the nozel of the heated glue gun and rubbed it on the hard glue. This melted it and was then easy to scrape of bits of it and finally rip everything off. I started again on the other side this time learning from my mistakes and doing it very carefully.however this time I but the blob of glue on the outside so the glue strips of glue didn't seep into the gear plate. This may sound confusing but I have drawn a diagram to help show what I am talking about. Overall I learnt from my mistakes and fixed the problem. A picture of the end glued down result is also attached!
