Bang crash the wood work room was noisy.The lights were flickering on and off, the drill's zooming through the wood like a pen clicking shut. The wood work smelled of fresh glue, and saw dust that floated through the soft air. The room was hot, and sticky with our geeky glasses and long baggy apron's with a big variety of colours. The noise was irratating; the soft comfy ear muffs surronded my ears, the earings piercing my skin. My nails were filled with glue underneath and ontop of my nails. My eyes were getting tired, I yawned. My black top was sticking to my skin the back of my apron tied to tight for comfort. Everyone was running into each other, crashing, and tipping over the nails that were placed lazily on the table.
Finishing my latest product, two more terms until high school, can't wait to go but don't want to leave the wood work room. The noise fading as I head out the door getting ready to leave.

Wood-Work
In tech (terms 2-3) we have doing our work on containers.
In woodwork the latest thing we made was these awesome things called a marble maze!
Preparation:
At first we started with these things called “dove tails”
“Dove tails” are a sort of edge type thing that link together to make a link that if you do it properly you will get a L shaped thing that is hard to break.
You can break it though if u pull them away from each other the right way.
Next we made a square shape by joining all the dove tails together.
Next we put a box inside the square and made a maze.
After you do that you can put the marble in, attach rods and you’re finished!
