Our second activity was making key chains out of acrylic! Acrylic is a type of plastic. We had to use the acrylic to make a key chain. The acrylic has paper on the outside of it so that you can write on it and plan out what it is gonna look like. After you do that, you start cutting. We used a coping saw to cut it because a coping saw has a small blade, small enough to cut a thin piece of acrylic. After you have cut out your shape, you can choose what to do with it after. I chose to use this hot surface thing to melt the middle to twist it. And I wrote my name so it looked awesome!
I had a very fun time at Tech and I can't wait to go again!
