FINISHED TRIANGLE!

Final product!

SO STRONG!!!

In the process of bending the rebar!

STARTING PIECE OF REBAR

REBAR TRIANGLE!!!!

I played my home made rebar triangle at the pep rally for state today and it rocked! The triangle is huge and the sound is extremely similar to a normal triangle. I started with a straight piece of metal rebar and bent in into the general triangle shape while at school, and then I was able to clamp the metal at home and hammer the metal to get sharper corners.

MY XYLOPHONE!


YAY XYLOPHONE!

Today was absolutely wonderful I re-supported the base of my xylophone with a wooden beam nailed diagonally across the bottom. Then I was able to nail down each piece of sheet metal.
