Yo-Yo

Purpose: The purpose of the Yo-Yo project is to learn how to document work on a web-portfolio.

Journal 1

I used a hole saw to make a wood disk. I also glued a small wood stick in the middle. I still need to make another disk and sand.

Journal 2

I painted the two halves of my yo-yo. We had to use painter's tape to make straight lines between the two colors. I painted mine green and pink.

Journal 3

I added my string today. I had to unwind the string and loop it around one side. I am not great a using yo-yos so I need to practice.
