fandomhigh | Shop Class #7

Upon entering the Danger ~~Room~~ Shop, The classroom finds it transformed into a metal scrap yard.

Mac sits on the remains of a car seat tossing a medium size pumpkin in the air.

"Now that we got the emitters back in order, it's time to put some of your fabrication skills to work. Today I want you to start work on an apparatus that will fling a pumpkin. It can be a catapult, trebuchet, cannon, giant slingshot... whatever you want."

Mac motions to the scrap yard around him.

"Only catch is? You can use the parts you found from the junkyard behind me. You have full use of the shop tools to build whatever it is you plan to build. You have class today to plan and build. On Thursday we'll test out your new creations."

I'll be grading your project on:
Originality
Use of materials
Accuracy
Distance

"We have open shop this afternoon, and I'll have open shop tomorrow for those who want to use that time to work on their project. If you guys want to do this in groups or on your own, it's up to you."

"Thursday morning? We make a mess."

((I'll be modding the results of the pumpkin fling on Thursday based on how you build your "flinger". The more detail? The better your results.))

Mac's alter ego: "The Swiss Army Avenger"

I hope to one day patrol with the mighty Tick!

Hee. If I direct you to a balnk, want to make Phoebe an alter ego? She wants to fight crime with Tick. :)

Buffy went off and joined C.R.A.C.K.

You don't need an alter ego? Wasn't there an episode where Phoebe was dressed up like a supehero?

Okay... I *know* there was because all my geek buddies were drooling all over the pictures of the charmed ones in latex.

~~Not me though. Nope. Not at all.~~

I never saw that episode. *woe*

This is a bad image but:

Oh sorry... I thought you were asking for a icon for Phoebe

Oh I am. :) I never saw the super heroes episode...

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

"UUUUUUTILITYYYYY KNIIIIIIIIIFE!"

Nope. Just doesn't work. Going to have to work on that.

How does "MUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEETTTTTTTTTTT" work for you?

Hmmm.. Thought about that, but it might be a little easy.

"DUUUUUUUUUCT TAAAAAAAPE!"

Nah.

I just want to say how disturbing it is that when you Google "pumpkin flinging" you get *tons* of pages. Mostly of the trebuchet variety, apparently.

*goes back to reading about chucking punkins*

Never been to one myself, but it looks like great fun. And destruction!

Yep. And actually right up my friends' alley.

TREBUCHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!

*hasn't watched Timeline too much*

*will, sadly, most likely not be here on Thurs* *has woe*

*Suggests you take woe and put it in emo-bank*

Bridge is only allowed a certain amount of emo-time per week. He just used it up!

*Also suggests that slow-time can be our friend*

The average pumpkin is closer to 12-15 lbs than 1-2.

Trust me on that one. Thye average pumpkin, when roasted and pureed yeilds about 2 gallons of pumpkin puree for pies.

A Family of 6, eating pumpkin muffins at least once a week, will NOT consume three pumpkins in a year.
