My new genus hour project is building a trebuchet, That is a giant catapult mega minimized. It's really hard work because I have to cut out all the pieces from wood with a squaring saw.

Trebuchet

I've been really busy with school so I haven't been posting but here's the instructions to the call.

1. Cut a piece of PVC pipe three inches tall.
2. Take the pipe and trace the outline against the lid of a plastic yogurt container.
3. Cut out the circle then cut it in half.
4. glue the circle to the pipe.
5. cut the finger of a latex glove.
6. take the finger and spread it over the open half and tape it in place with electrical tape.
7. Now your done

this is what it should look like

     I decide to make turkey calls this quarter,so I started to make one. the call I decided to make a box call. It is a block of wood hollowed out and has a paddle of wood screwed on top. 

BIG BOT FINNISHED

I finnished desinning and building my own bot. It looks super cool! It has spinning arms and a spinning head. I desined it all on my own.

          


                   Today I tried to build a trailer for my bot , but the axils I had were to small ( I couldn't get the wheeles on). So I started to expirement. I managed to mount it on to the moter/battery compartment. Now it looks like a tractor with wings. I am starting to think on having it as a spybot insted of a carrier bot. I'm going to ask Mom If I can mount her vidio cam on the bot. So wish me luck.

                 I have finished my first robot! It's a battery powered, non remote controlled robot. My robot is a 8inch by 3inch robot. The next step is to build a trailer to haul Lego buildings. I named him TractorBot because he looks like a tractor.

I GOT MY PARTS

               Today I got all the parts for my robot. There are some hightec stuf going to go into the robot. My robot is going to look like a car; hopefully I will be able to build a trailer for it. I intend to have it transport buildings. This is going to be so fun!
