Andrew Builds an Engine

Andrew put together the four stroke engine. Dieu came in to help him for the final couple of days since Dieu has some experience with this module.

Acrylic Bending Module

This is Jaci and Dani, making some Christmas tree ornament at the acrylic bending module. How do you bend them you ask?? Well, we shall tell you. First, you place the plastic pieces on the heating bay and once a jello-like jiggle occurs you begin with a slight bend. Then you hold the bend until it cools and is solid. You find yourself with an ornate Christmas ornament.
