This week I have been making a few things. Here is a electric motor I made on Wednesday, It is from Opitec. First I cut the pine strips and glued them in place, then I made the bearing block, then the motor by winding the copper wire windings around the bits of metal and did a few other things then wired it up to the battery then tried it.
Here is a spider that I made out of ready cut balsa wood.
All you have to do is sand it then assemble and glue it.
Yesterday a bit of its two front legs broke but its not really noticeable.
This is a axe I carved out of some pine wood that my friend let me take from his wood pile. I carved it with my new chisels and files mum got me and Caleb from B&Q.
That's a really cool spider that you built. I have a T-Rex robot that's made out of wood that I got at a museum in South Carolina. When my dad helps me build it I will put a picture of it on my blog.
I have to second what bubbebobbie said. You ARE very talented. I will have to show my 2ds your post. He wants to carve. His blog is www.homeschoolblogger.com/sleeper
Those are such neat projects. My son really wants to try his hand at carving, I'm going to have to show him your picture of the axe you did :)
Blessings,

You carved that yourself? I'm very impressed. I see people carve things with chain saws around here--bear cubs in trees and eagles nesting, but your ax is very, very good!
excellent job you've made of the axe. Next time you're at our place you can have another piece of laburnum and I'll show you another project you can carve
Hi Ari, Mum here. I am logged in but keeps coming up as anonymous. Love your axe. It will have pride of place on my mantlepiece forever. I look forward to seeing your next piece. All my love, Mum xo
Hay this the first time looking at you blog and it is really cool. How long did it take for you to make that axe out of wood. the spider is cool to.I did some thing like that but mine is a dragon. What is that motorter used for? Would you like to be my friend.
