Greetings the names Sam and this is my first post!This model is a successful representation of the mechanical workings of a human elbow. i made it in the second trimester for DESN 111 project 2. The brief stated that I had to clearly communicate the trace movements of the chosen joint. I eventually chose steel as the material I was to use, its strong, rugged, easy for me to work with and having been in steel construction for the last 3 years I felt comfortable working with it. I feel it was very successfull in the way it portrayed and mapped the various movements of the elbow. It was also success full in the fact that it put up some resistance that grew as you used it more making it stiff and harder to move, much like your own elbow if you where to over use it. I chose to talk about it because I had a lot of fun making it (fire is fun and so is hitting things with hammers), and it took quite awhile to put together.

Blogs everywhere
Spent awhile surfing blogs most of which are in some other language or about something I really could care about, but afew have stood out from the rest.
Its Hendrix! what is there not to like. I like how it has many many videos and pictures of the rock legend, all though its not the most interesting blog visually its very entertaining.
This one also stood out to me as well, mainly because of the format the author has used to get her recipes, hints and tips across and because everything looks so tasty. Its also a very nice blog to look at.
This ones another cool one, lots of weird and strange things on this blog. The world longest escalator to a toilet themed restaurant to the largest water fountain in the world. Its got everything!
