 31/5/12

In yesterday's lesson I got a lot of work done which I was very happy with. The first thing I did was take the paper off all of my layers and use sandpaper to make the wood smooth and get off any bits of paper. I was very excited then because I was able to use the hot glue gun which meant I was one step closer to vacuum forming. I had to be very careful with the glue and make sure I didn't put too much on or else when I vacuum formed, it wouldn't turn out well and the glue would melt and stick to the plastic. I managed to glue down all of my layers. Next week I am going to vacuum form my clock and paint it at home. I can't wait to see what it looks like.
