Reflection 05/09/13

This lesson we learnt about the different ways of joining the pieces of wood we are using to build our trebuchet together. The different joins you can use are:

• Butt Joint
• Rebate Joint
• Reinforced Butt Joint (Wardy's Special)

This lesson will really benefit Alix and I whilst making our trebuchet as we now know which joins will make our trebuchet the most stable and strong. Mr Ward also informed us today that in next weeks lessons he will be away and that we will be working on the written component (history, planning and designing sections) of our essay.
