Advanced art is exploring metals. We have learned how to saw metal, file & sand, cast and set a resin stone, and right now exploring metal finishes.
Today Peyton Splichal experimented with a chemical free patina... a crushed up hard boiled egg in a bag. As an egg hard boils, sulfur compounds break down and release hydrogen sulfide gas. When this gas contacts the metal surface, the sulfur reacts with the metal to form a layer of metal sulfide. On copper, brass, or bronze, it forms copper sulfide, producing rich browns, bronzes, or dark grays.
Love when projects go cross curricular!

Last weekend the Robotics Team participated in the practice rounds of the BEST Robotics Competition at Wichita State University. The robot, "Uber Buff" scored very well as the robot navigated a mock kitchen in a restaurant to prepare meals and deliver them. The team utilized new design and build strategies and even built a second back up robot. We are very proud of the hard work of the robotics team and wish them the best of luck at the final state BEST robotics competition on November 7th.
