I want to practice on something first.
Any ideas? Where can I get those weird circuit things they used to have a school. we used to solder wires to a circuit board and make a lightbulb light up with a 9 volt battery.
out after 3 or so hours but used to be 10 - 12 hours, need to fit new battery but can only be done DIY and requires soldering..you reckon you could do this ? or is it so easy i could >?

but it was too pale.
So I have used teabags to restain the wood and it's amazingly good.
I am just awaiting for my lacquer to arrive.

built a remote control car. and some sort of pencil holder out plastic. A whole term spent designing it. in the end bending the plastic with some sort of heat machine and drilling a few holes in it.
I am still not sure why we had to draw borders on our paper in Technology.

the smell was something else and he had to buy himself a new coat in the end. He rubbed chewing gum in my hair to get me back though
I also used to like poking drawing pins on the underside of the plastic chairs so that people would sit on them.

coke bottles and a balloon taped to them.
It was very painful and dangerous. :-(
