Foundations of Engineering
Building a Box
Working on Power tools
Making a Storage box
Saw Stop/Table Saw
Saw Stop Saftey:
Wear Saftey
Remove Loose Clothing
Don't put your fingers within 6" of the blade when it is moving
Use the feather board
Use the rip fence or the miter gauge
Vacuum 10 minutes before class ends
What I made
Describstion: The table has a blade that spends forward and is used to cut wood.
CNC Router
Wear safter glasses/goggles
Clamp and/or screw all wood down
Always watch the CNC router when it is cutting anything.
Do not run a bit over any screws.
The CNC router is a computer-controlled cutting machine. CAD-make the design CAM- material and tools CNC- COntol Box. It also has a x-axis, y-axis,z-axis. You have to zero the machine so the cnc routercan konw exactly where you placed the wood.
what i made
I used a cnc router to cuarve my name into my piece of wood. This saw was able to make 2d and 3d cuts.
Planer Saw
Planer Safety/what is does
Wear ear protection wear safety glasses
Adjust the cvutting thinkness within 1/16" og the material thickness prior to cutting
Unplug when finished
Attach the vacuum before use
Smoothens out any kind of wood
Removes stains
The blades skim not cut/saw
Evens out the thickness of the wood
what I made
MIter Saw
Do's:
Wear Safety glasses
Firmly secure hand outside of the hand placement line and uo againts the fence
Vaccim after use
Unplug the saw ( In the classroom) after
Reduce exposure to blade
Don'ts:
Touch or manually move the blade guard
Cut the material that requires your hand to be inside of the hand placement line ( material is too short for this application)
Measure while material is on the saw
The miter saw is able to cut long and short pieces of wook doing the middle and at the line you put it at.
WHAT I MADE
Biscuit Joiner
Safety Guidelines:
Do:
Wear safety googles
Make sure it is set for the appropriate size of biscuit
Make sure you set the height in the middles of the material
Mark both sides of the material
Clamp a block in front of material each time
Keep joiner flat on the suface of the wood you're making the insertion in.
Don't:
Put your fingers near the blade when it is plugged in
Assume the blade won't come out of the material
What i made
Orbital Sander
Use saftey goggles
Sander is used to smoothen out the wood each pass.
The sander moves at a circular motion and it vibrates while cutting.
Make sure that your hand is far away from the sander when your cutting.
What I made
Stain
Wear gloves
Wore aprin
Used red and grey stain
Srew driving for opening
Used hammer to close
Used old shirt to stain
Don't stain against the grain
Whatever the stain gets on it would be hard to get off
Stain is like paint but with a stain you can still see the design under the wood
My box was smaller than most of the other boxes. My box was much smaller than the others. The color of the stain on the outside was a dark red color and the color of the bottom and inside was a blueish grey color. Using drills I was able to put hinges in my box so it could open and close. Using the orbital sander My box was able to be smooth. Using a biscuit cutter It was able to help me fuse the parts of my boxes together. The miter saw was used to cut the bigger pieces of my box. Those are more of the bigger tools and things I used to make my box.
Lantern Project
Lantern Project Intro
Today we learned that we will be making an handmade lantern.
Project Constraints
The projects constraints are what your project needs to have at the end of creating it . Basically the requirments.
Project Task
These are the tasks and steps that we will need to finish our box and make it unique.

Today we used the Ardino application to make our LED blink from our motherboard. We used a black and red cords to connect our LED and motherboard. We put the red cord in on the D13 spot and the black cord on the GND spot. The cords barely stayed.
soldered Neo Pixel
This device is the neo pixel. It is used to reflect colors that you put in the codes. With the cords soldered on the pixel, it allows for the cords to connect of the pixels and connect to the motherboard. I had to cut and melt the cords onto the pixel with a rod.
Lit Lamp Light/ Window Light
Brief:
Today we learned with the help of the Engineering process that we have been learning since the beginning of the year to make a light/window light. We will choose and decide what colors and light patterns we will use to illuminate. We will come up and build and base using heavy acrylic. We will show that we understand the design process.
Research
Kobe "BEAN'' Bryant
This had to be something that I had to put down because Kobe Bryant shook the world in so many ways and he is one of my top 5 favorite players of all time.
Sports Team
Having my favorite sports team in my room would be cool so people who walk in my room know who I like the most.
Camero
Camaro is my favorite car of all time so having this in my room would be very meaningful.
Reminders
I think this is a good idea to have in your room for motivation.
"IF it aint about the money"
Money is something that you need t o survive in this world.
Airmax
Airmax shoes are my favorite shoes that are not basketball shoes.
Idea Development
Family Tradition Number
My dad wore number 33 in college, me and my brother wore 33 when we first started playing football. This is a tribute to what my family repersents when it comes to tradition.
