The Process

Thanks for your comment Mark. Here are some photos of the process we used to create our space rockets and space shuttles.

First we sanded the pieces of wood we were using to make them smooth and take away all the bumps.

Next we put the pieces of wood together to get the shape we wanted.

The next step was to paint our rockets or shuttles.

Finally we glued the decorations onto our masterpieces.

We hope that this answers your question. We would love you to visit us in Maker Space one day soon.
