In this blog, I will be discussing the next steps my group took in order to fix the chair. After, we cleaned every part of the chair. We knew the next step was to start attaching the legs back to the plate of the chair. But the question was how??

Fixing a Metal Stool

My next project for my Machines and Tools class was to design a structure for a metal stool that will make it withstand properly and more durable.


I wasn't able to get a personal picture. But this is the exact model of the chair.

Penny Battery



         This year, I'm taking up a new challenge! I signed up to take a Machines and Tools class at my school and I can already say that it's really cool. My teacher Mr. G gave us a really interesting first assignment. He introduced my class to the invention of the first battery made out of copper and zinc!

Question: What's a penny battery?


Kelly: Basically it's a battery made out pennies!
