I used tin snips to put two 15 and 15 cuts into the bottom corner of my push plate so that it would slide inside the frame 



Assembly tools 





Spanner or wrench


I used a crescent to loosen the nuts on the lath so that I could change the angle of the cutting tool





Hammer

I used a hammer to stamp my initials on my work so that I can find my work easier




Gripping tools

here I used a welding clamp to grip two peaces of metal before they are welded



What have I learned? I have learned how to do acetylene welding


What was the most difficult tool to use and why? the acetylene welder because if you have it to hot you can blow holes through the thin sheet metal


What did I enjoy? I enjoyed the hole projet


What would I do differently next time? I would oil the wood base plate

crabs 

shells 

Soft Shell Crab Whole – Fresh Marine Foods

Raw crab meat should have a pure white flesh with a bright red rind where the flesh meets the shell. The colors should be bright and clean. Brown color to either the white flesh or the red rind tells you that the crab meat has spent too much time separated from the shell and exposed to air.

The crab's shell should turn a bright orange when done. 6.) When the crabs are done, immerse them for a few seconds in cold water so that cooking stops and they do not overcook


color 

While they might be bright red when they hit your dinner plate, crabs and lobsters are usually brown, olive-green or gray when alive and in the wild (at least in the mid-Atlantic U.S.; crustaceans farther south come in a variety of vibrant colors)
