Day 7 - May 7th 2009

Today Alexa fixed the roof! The class started off on a very good note. We glue-gunned the four pieces of the roof together and our "dreamhouse" finally started looking decent. Of course, nothing can go perfectly, Emily went to put the holes for the axle in the two sides of the house and the drill press fell apart, leaving huge holes in both of the sides.  It seems like our "dreamhouse" is turning into a nightmare, especially when we saw the size of the largest drill-bit, which is going to be making the holes for the windows. The windows will be very tiny compared to our house, but we're planning on decorating the façade so it should look okay.  Emily had to re-measure and began to re-cut the sides of the house.  Hopefully next class we will be able to catch up on lost time, since we have two periods to work tomorrow.
