Why do I have a strong feeling that I may not be able to finish making my product before the deadline? Why do I feel that I made a mistake by choosing to make such a complicated design? Why am I not optimistic about making my product? These are the questions that ask myself every time I see the uneven and the weird looking wood pieces! I always have this feeling at the corner of my mind 24/7! But I am hoping to finish most of it during the holidays and I am quite sure I will! Today, I came around 10 minutes late to the DT lesson because I had to finish some important business with Mr. Ochieng. As soon I came into the room, I grabbed a coat and went inside the dusty and the spooky store room to get a huge piece of plywood! For this lesson, I had planned to get some wood and cut it into small sizes so that it can be easier for me to carry it around. The wood was very big and had more 20 nails! So after choosing the wood, I removed all the nails using a hammer! My friend, Nikita also volunteered to help me which was very helpful and nice of her! Together, we worked and finished removed them very quickly. The wood piece had another small but long wood stuck to it. It was strongly stuck and had many nails which was very difficult to remove. So I just decided to cut that piece off as it would not make such a big difference. This was done by Mr. Wafula as it is quite a complicated process. It looked very difficult too! After that I realized that such a humongous piece of wood will be very difficult to carry home. So I decided to cut into half, but not too small because the dimensions of my box are not very small and should be able to fit! Again, I did not do the cutting of the wood. My classmate (I think Jeff ) did it.
they look something like this...
