Our family played flashlight tag in the field for family night this week. This is Helen making a spooky face with the flashlight.
This week at Craterworks the boys continued building their trebuchet. Ross showed them how to read orthoscopic projection plans. Shout out to Ross for his very cool, light up "vote" pin.
Eddy was in charge of building the trebuchet's swing arm. He heavily reinforced the arm at the point where it connects to the trebuchet frame.
By the end of our session, the trebuchet was free standing and able to support the weight of the swing arm. Next week the boys will fine tune their trebuchet and then test it out!
Gibson put some of his new woodworking skills to use this week. His science teacher assigned his class to make name tags. Gibson took apart the challenge project he built a few weeks ago (the one that could hold his body weight 16 inches above the ground) and reused the wood and screws to build a name tag holder. Part of the assignment was to list two facts about himself on the name tag.
