Joshua: Assignment 1


"I'm an explorer, a traveling poet, ready to look at the world from a different point of view. I get antsy staying in one place for too long... I was born to move. 2x4's, 1x4's, and recycled bike parts--these are the ingredients that make for real adventures, all for close to $free.99. My top is structurally reinforced with a central 2x4 so I can support passengers of all shapes and sizes. A wandering surface is made of wood planks, each one cut precisely to line up with its neighbor. Two small legs enable the table to stand free, without the bicycle that is typically attached. These small details, signs of craftsmanship and care, tell the world that I am important, that I matter, that I belong, and that I can be the start of a meaningful conversation... wherever it happens to take place."

  1. In class, we were told what to expect for the next 13 weeks in this opportunity. We also were familiarized with what's going to be our building area and our area to do other work. I and 2 other students were able to use a table saw. Lastly, we were told about the blog and how we are going to use it for this program.
