Making a Cam
First we designed our cams on paper, then wrote down a list of everything we needed. Next we collected all the things to make our cams.
After that we measured, sawed and assembled the frame, (made out of jelutong). The fun part was when we got to use the glue guns to secure the frame. We then stuck on the card triangles which helped to make the corners and to strengthen them. We drilled holes in wooden circles (cams) and threaded a long stick called a spindle through.
We then cut very strong card and decorated it to our liking. Using the same card we invented little characters and stuck both on top of our followers.
