My biggest success was when I made the wood to stick on the foam. It was hard when there was no glue to use for the foam. I was very careful to not make the foam melt. It worked out pretty well, the problem for that was the hot glue was stuck on the wire so it might jam.

My biggest obstacle was when I had to bend the wires.  That was one of the big problems my classmate all faced. It was hard to bend using the pliers. You don’t know which direction to twist. When I did my second crank, Mr. Layman gave me the easy bend type of wire.

One thing I’d like to change is the glue to stick the backboard more close to the foam so it won’t shake. Also, I want to change the net from paper to the real kind of net. That looks more like a real hoop.

These are the links to my crank
