SLJ/WK 2 - Bridge Builder (bridge design IRL)

 Hi everyone! My name is Finau and welcome/welcome back to my blog. 

I created a bridge design and tried to make one outside. It was quite fun,challenge,interesting to do. I'm very glad I had a few of the materials. This is a draft that I'm still working on so I hope that this bridge gets done or built in the next few weeks. As you can see the structure isn't very strong. I still don't know if I'll get it done. Vaha and Catherine helped out on this one. Make sure to check out the video! 

I hope you have enjoyed this post. Please leave a positive comment.
