This is my last project in Space class.
April 11, 2017.
I did not know what I will make. A pink rabbit in mystery.
April 14, 2017
We chose one of the options: hardwood thumbing surfaces, plaster bodies, ceramic bodies, vacuum plastic bodies, plywood bodies, and sheet metal bodies. (without any information 🙂
April 17, 2017
I made two different version of foams.
A rabbit and the first letter of rabbit in Korean; 토끼–>ㅌ
April 18, 2017
Unexpectedly, the Korean word for rabbit became a shape of Anakin Skywalker.
We tried to use the vacuum former.
However, I decided not to use version two, “ㅌ”

Ceramic work
April 25, 2017
This is my first-time ceramic work and many things happened unexpectedly.
This was first firing work.
Woodwork
Zebra wood is strong, unique, and special.
I sanded the edges of the panels and glued three pieces of zebra woods.
April 28, 2017
After attaching, drew the rabbit face and cut the zebra wood.
I sanded the broken part of the tail on the rabbit, the edge which will be attached to the zebra wood, and the whole surface for glazing.
Glazing work
I chose mango orange color with crystal for glazing.
May 2, 2017
I cut the zebra wood and continued sanding with various tools.
Glazing was not perfect, and I decided to fire one more time.
May 5, 2017
Now I knew that it will be a musical instrument, and I needed to make holes.
I painted the metal stuff.
