The Last Chapter...

Sir Oro:
Thank you po sa lahat ng projects na pinagawa mo samin, kahit po minsan mahirap, parang sinanay niyo na rin po kami.. Thank you po sa lahat ng bagay na naitulong niyo...

Chapter 17: The End

balajiphotography.blogspot.com
The three are finished with their ADTech 2 now, they are going to end their story here...
This will be the end of our story...
Although the three wanted this to last, they need to keep moving on...

Chapter 16: The Progress Chart

3-2-15 to 3-8-15: We looked for problems around the campus (Observe and Investigate)
3-9-15: Daniel thought of the violations he had and remembered that he only had one violation.. "Dirty Room"..
3-9-15: JT suggested the 2-in-1 dormer's solution.
3-23-15: Due to a hectic schedule of the three, they only started a week after thinking of a solution..
3-23-15: Daniel started to form the skeletal system of the artefact which is the box.
3-24-15: We started to work on the circuits and repeated the design of our artefact due to the deadline.
3-25-15: The circuit is done and Daniel covered the outer part of the artefact with colored paper
3-26-15: We tried to submit our artefact, but Sir Oro wanted us to cover the inner part of the artefact.
3-26-15: We still finished it that day and submitted it to Sir Oro...

Chapter 15: The Design Plan

Constraint:: The group of creators should find a problem within the grounds of PSHS-BRC and find a solution to fix it.
As for our group we found out that most of the violations from our dormitory came from the unfixed stuff in a room which caused a dirty room.
Our solution? An organizer and a study light, a 2-in-1 solution for every dormers problem.

Chapter 13: The Side Story

As they celebrated for their finished prototype of their own Sphinx, their ADTech teacher gave them an activity which instructs them to find a problem and that they need to find a solution for that problem.
"Tol dirty room nanaman kami", said JT.
"Oo nga eh, parang sunod-sunod na yung mga nangyayari", said Justin.
PROBLEM:
Dirty room is becoming the leading violation for the dormers of PSHS-BRC, disorganized school stuff is the main reason for the violation. Also, lights off is being violated due to studying in the room, disturbance to roommates will be caused by the former.
SOLUTION:
To create a personalized organizer with its own study light for Study Nights.
"Presenting the XXX Organizer", said Daniel.
"Di ba nagmumukhang Redt**e yung pangalan?", said Justin.

"O, yan na", said Justin.
"Ano nga sunod?", asked JT.
TO BE CONTINUED...

Chapter 8: The Come Back

The three returned to school from their adventures in Egypt. Still a bit shocked from what they saw back in Egypt, they remembered what they saw back in Egypt. They decided to create a prototype for the Sphinx. They will follow what they want...
"Tol simulan na natin gawin yun", said Daniel.
"OK, sundan na lang natin yung tinuro sa atin ni Tanda roon", said Justin.
And they started to created their own dream Sphinx.
TO BE CONTINUED...

Chapter 6: The Progress Chart

"Sa tingin ko'y magagamit nating muli ang proyektong ito balang araw", sounded out Daniel.
"Kakailanganin nating itala ang kung ano man ang ating gagawin", said JT.
"Kakailanganin niyong gumawa ng Progress Chart, mga binata" stated the Old Sage.
"Kung iyon po ay magiging daan sa pagkakakita namin sa aming kinakamit na Sphinx", said Justin.
"Ito ay aming gagawin", continued Daniel.

PROGRESS CHART:

1-26-15: Daniel depicted twelve pattern for the keytag.
               The night that date, JT chose one of the patterns for the                    design proper.








1-27-15: Daniel outlined the design proper on the cardboard for the keytag.
               Daniel cut the cardboard and created the bones for the keytag.
               JT planned the circuit, he positioned the wires, switch and light bulb.
               Daniel executed JT's plan for the wirings. Then he secured it by using glue and tape.
1-29-15: We mummified the keytag.
               Daniel emblazoned the keytag and waited for it to dry.
2-2-15: The keytag was dry and ready for submission.

Chapter 7: The Ending

JT endorsing our Torchlight Keytag
"Tol tapos na natin!!" exclaimed JT.
"Sa wakas makakapunta na tayo sa lagusan!!"
"Pagsapit ng alas-10 ng gabi ay pupunta tayo sa kinaroroonan ng lagusan at ating bubuksan ang pinto roon." said the Old Sage
Time passed, and at the verge of night, the four began to travel.
As they got closer to the door, the sage turned the torchlight on, and inserted the key into the hole.
The door opened magically, as if a wizard said a magic word.
The Sphinx
The three were shocked in amazement that they found what they were looking for.
"Tol, eto na yun!!" exclaimed JT.
"Oo nga" answered Justin.
The three then decided to create a prototype for the Sphinx.
But then the Old Sage disappeared from their sight.
"O sige gawa tayo nito" said Daniel
TO BE CONTINUED...

Chapter 5: The Design Procedure

"Sa tingin ko'y kailangan niyo munang planuhin ang inyong mga gagawin, mga binata", said the Old Sage.
"Oo nga, kailangan muna natin itong planuhin", continued JT.
"OK", replied Daniel.
Then the three formulated a plan for procedures.
DESIGN PROCEDURE:
There will be twelve patterns for design.
There should only be one pattern that will be used for the design proper.
The pattern chosen will be outlined on a cardboard.
The outlined pattern will be cut.
The arrangement of the circuit should be planned so that it can work efficiently.
The circuit should be secured so that it will fall into its proper places.
Mummify the artefact so that it will be hardened.
Emblazon the artefact.
"OK na", said Justin.
TO BE CONTINUED...

Chapter 4: The Design

As a product of Daniel's creativity, he created the designs which is shown on the left side of this post. JT chose among the designs and chose design no. 7. Although I chose design no. 10, JT was the one who was followed because of he won on an argument over the design of our product.

Chapter 3: The Evaluation Criteria

"Dre, paano kaya natin malalaman kung maayos ang nagawa natin?" asked JT.
Then a paper suddenly appeared in front of them.
"Dre, may nakasulat!!" exclaimed Justin.
This is what the paper says:
A GUIDE TO CREATING A KEYCHAIN TORCHLIGHT
To evaluate your work when you have finished the artefact:
1. Is it working?
2. Is the switch of the artefact sensitive?
3. Is the design for the artefact good enough?
4. Is the artefact simple and easy enough to use regularly?
5. Is it able to efficiently provide light during times of darkness?

"Astig naman nito. Biruin mo may bigla na lang lumilitaw na papel sa harapan mo." said Daniel.
"Kesa naman sa wala, diba?" said Justin.
TO BE CONTINUED...

Chapter 2: The Design Panty

"Lolo, ano po ba ang dapat naming gawin upang maisagawa ang iyong mga sinasabi?" asked JT.
"Gagawa kayo ng torchlight para sa keychain." said the Old sage.
"Ngunit ano naman ang silbi nito sa paghanap namin ng Sphinx?" asked JT.
"Sa gabi, ay may alam akong isang lagusan na kung saan ay may natatagong sikreto." stated the Old Sage
"Nasa akin ang susi para sa lagusang ito ngunit sa sobrang dilim ay pinapagawa ko ito sainyo.", continued the Old Sage
"Ano po ba ang inyong palagay sa maaaring maging laman ng lagusang ito?" asked Justin.
"Sa tingin ko'y ito'y may kayamanang ihahatid sa kung sinumang makakakita nito,  ayon sa mga narinig ko" replied the Old Sage.
"Kailangan nating gumawa ng torchlight na magagamit natin upang buksan ang lagusan, kailangang ito'y maaaring magamit at gawa sa illustration board." continued the Old Sage
"Kung gayo'y amin nang sisimulan ang nasabing proyekto" said Daniel.
TO BE CONTINUED

Chapter 1: The Torchlight

The three landed on the deserts of the Sahara and the air car was full of dust. A sandstorm came after them..
"Tol may buhawi!!" exclaimed Justin.
"G*go sandstorm yan, pero OO NGA PAPUNTA SA ATIN!!"
"Yuko!!!"
After the sandstorm passed, JT shouted in exaggeration:
"Yung air car!!!"
"O siya nga no, nasan na ba yun?"
"Patay tayo diyan! Nandun lahat ng gamit natin!!"
Then an old sage appeared in front of them.
"Huwag kayong mag-alala. Kayo ay aking sasagipin sa pamamagitan nito." said the Old Sage.
Then, a resistor, a LED light bulb, a 3M long wire, a soldering iron, a lithium battery, and an illustration board appeared right in front of them.
"Kung kayo'y susunod lamang sa aking mga sasabihin ay sinisiguro ko sa inyo na inyong mahahanap kung ano man ang nawawala sainyo." said the Old Sage.
"Paano naman kami makakasiguro sa iyong mga sasabihin?" asked JT.
"Sa paniniwala sa matang gumagawa ng ilusyon ay di makabubuti, ngunit sa sasabihin ng isang matandang kagaya ko ay para sa inyong ikabubuti." replied the Old Sage.
"Sige po, kami ay susunod na sainyong mga sasabihin" stated Justin.

The Prologue

As the six of them saved the world through the 'Plate Stacker', the three main characters, JT, Daniel and Justin set on a new journey...
While they were seating on their air car, JT started a conversation.
"Tol, san tayo papunta?", asked JT.
"Sa dulo ng walang hanggan." replied Justin.
"De papunta tayo sa Egypt, hahanapin natin yung Sphinx." said Daniel.
"Ah, OK." said JT.
