LED blog

three things that i learned is that i learned that you have to place the LED light with the south on the north and the north on the south in order for it to work correctly. i also learned that jumper wires are very helpful when trying to create a full circuit. the last thing that i learned is that you need a resistor to make sure that you do not blow the LED light. In this class i made a series  of circuits that was able to turn on an LED light. i used jumper wires, “dimes” female and male wires, a resister, a battery, and an LED light. WIN_20150916_143320WIN_20150916_143259

Learning SketchUp

Grace Chair

While using SketchUp I learned how to make guides, correctly push and pull, make all the legs of a table the same length, use the push/pull tool to make a hole, and use the rotate tool. I also learned how to make it so that something we created will not move. The last thing that I learned is  how to
