The Big Dome (Part 2 Connector)

Monday, 27/9, early in the morning, we only got the news that we had to bring our own struts to HBP. What?!?Bring our struts from rumpun buluh to HBP later??! Oh my god..No choice..Hurriedly I prepared myself and went to help carry the struts from the site to HBP.

With sweat perspiring, we carried the bamboo crossing the road,with the bamboos on our shoulders, we were like aliens. Everyone in the car and on the motorcycle were watching us. We were weirdo on the road. Haha...This is HBP student.

After the studio,its time to do the connector. But the that day when the connector arrives, our group could only get 1 connector. So with the only connector that we had, we started to thin the ends of the bamboo to fit in the connector.
Took our parang, measuring tape and other tools, we started to do our work.
We couldn't complete our work on that day without the connector, so leave the work for the next day.







So on tuesday, 28/9, we went to HBP early in the morning to wait for the arrival of our VIP---connector. When the connector arrives, we cut it into the length needed. Some were still doing works with thinning the bamboo and some went to mark and cut of the connector.



We were too busy doing the works with connector that day and we worked until the night falls. After we took our dinner, we went back to HBP to continue our work again. We were too focused on doing our struts, until Mei Thong said that it was 10pm.Oh my god!The bus! Quick! Keep all the things and rush to take the bus back to our hostel!
With a very fast speed,we kept our things and rush to take the bus back to our hostel. This was how we end our work that day.





Wednesday, 29/9, the struts again. We had class in the morning and afternoon, so the time for us to do the struts were so few, but we still need to grap our time to do it. The work for marking and cutting the connector is done, just left the work for heating, flattening, smoothening the edges and drill the connector to make holes. So we spent our time doing these that day. Pheww~ Finally, these were our products~~
At night, we went to KFC for celebration of mission accomplishment~~
