Below i have posted a video of how a four stroke moter works.

Please post a reflection on your E Portfolio covering your experiences over the past five weeks. Include what you think of the programme so far.

my experiences over the past 5 weeks have been awsome i have learnt so much so far. I have learnt plenty, we have stripped a moter apart and had to identify all the parts and pieces we removed and rebuild it again. we also have learnt to do fusion welding on the 27th of august, i really enjoyed this as i have always been interested in learning this. we have done our first aid certificate and done plenty of our work on our industry practice. on the first week we were here a group of us went into the work shop for a introduction, we also learnt how to do break pads in the first week. At the end of august we learnt how to make a drill gauge witch was great as we got to keep them i also ended up cleaning it and shining it up a bit. i have really enjoyed this course so far as i am very very interested in this type of industry ever since i can remember i have also got good mates and a good tutor witch makes it very easy to stick with it.
