Brought the box

Today I brought my box to school and I think Mr. Bursch liked it.

Finished the box

Today I hand cut all the wood because my dad was gone and I'm not allowed to use power tools with out him.  Then once he got home we took his drill and drilled the holes for the wood to be held in place.  Then we took nuts and bolts and put them in.  Once all the wood was in we made the lid and lock and then we welded it on.

Made the frame of the box

Today my dad taught me how to weld so we took all the meatal and lined it up and put a little tack weld just to get the frame and then I put the final welds on it.  Then I took the grinder with a different wheel and grinded down the welds.  Once I had the frame made I cut the corrugated metal and welded that in.

Cut all the metal

Today I took all the metal I had and took the grinder and cut all of the metal that is necessary to build the garden box that I am making.  The only thing I don't have is the corrugated metal and we have to get that from the recycle place.
