Lesson 12

This lesson I got through lots! First I glued on my battery holder on the remote control, this was a simple job. Then I glued on my two motors. I glued them do the copper but was facing upwards and they were close together but not touching. I also had to make sure that the little gear was touching the big gear so that when the motor turned the little gear would click onto the big gear and make it spin which would make the wheel spin. later I cut the wires. We had to cut two red wires and one grey. I made them each a side of a desk and a half long. I used the wire cutters to cut the wire of the bundle and did this for all. Then I had to strip the ends of the wire do that the rubber was cut of the ends so it was just wire. This will allow the electric flow to get through the wire easier as rubber is not a conductor. I used the orange wire strippers to strip the ends. This was simply done by lining up the wire in the little claw thing and pushing the two sides together, Like a stapler once all my wires were cut I put them all in my little plastic bag to keep safe for next lesson.
