Well, after three cans of spray paint and four masonite boards cut into 19 pieces, I am done with my figure for 3-D design. I’ve been working crazy hard, when I could, which was hard considering we weren’t allowed to be alone in the woodshop due to the possibility of chopped off fingers. There were times I went to work on my project and there wasn’t anyone else there so I couldn’t work on it. :-( But I survived and…

In my 3D design class, we’re learning about the woodshop, and we’re making figures out of masonite board. I have spent yesterday and today playing with the power tools, cutting out my pieces that will eventually fit together to make a nice little person. Power tools are fun. They are also tiring. I finished around 8:30 tonight and I came back to my apartment absolutely exhausted. I took a long shower to wash all the sawdust off of me. I…
