I know I've said this about every #ProcessPigs, but I had a blast making this pig too!! Check out the process on this bad boy by checking out the video below.
I used a variety of tools for this project. Can you identify any of the tools above?
I collected a BUNCH of pop cans of many different colors. I had my friends and family help me gather the cans. Can you think of a place where you could get some pop cans to use?
As you saw in the video, I drew and colored my plan before making the pig out of the metal pop cans. When you draw something on paper and then use it as a guide for a different material it is called a pattern or a layout. So I created my own pattern to follow for this pig.
I had to take the pattern and cut it up to figure out the sizes and shapes I needed the metal to be. It was VERY challenging, but that is what made it so satisfying to accomplish this pig. I had a hard time, at times I wanted to give up, but because I kept working hard and figuring out the problems, I was able to finish this pig and that made me feel proud.
