week 6

This week in Metals we had to decide what our personal project for the rest of the year would be. So, i decided that I want to make a coat rack that hangs up on my wall. For the pegs i"m going to use railroad spikes and at the top I'm going to make a wooden shelf. I'm a really big fan of wood that came directly from a log, like wood that still has bark on the sides. That's what I'm planning to do for the shelf the problem is i don't know where i can find a mill to cut my own piece so I might have to order one. If i can't find where I can get one then I'll probably just get a nice piece of wood to use but either way I'm hoping it'll come out nice!

 

Here's an example of the type of board I was talking about just in case you didn't know exactly what I meant.

here is the model that I made of what I'm hoping the rack will turn out to look like
