I was getting bored of reading so thought id have a go at making some small scale models using some aspects of mechanical systems i had started investigating.
Although i did enjoy this activity i don't feel like i really learnt anything from this exercise and spent longer on building than really considering what it was i was making. I think this is partly because i was following instructions on how to build the models and not thinking for myself.
I think this would be a useful exercise to do later on in my learning when i understand the mechanical principles better. i could design my own model and apply the knowledge i have gained. which is what i stated as my last learning goal.
