Tau Beta Pi

October 21, 2005

I have been eager to join in as a member of the prestigious Tau Beta Pi Engineering Honor Society. This quater is the time that I will put my effort to get myself admitted

There are certainly requirements to be met before being initiated as a member. One of them is the BENT casting and polishing. At this point in time, I have the casted BENT in my possession. A picture of the BENT is shown in the picture below.

As you could see, the casted BENT that I got has a rough finish. The BENT was casted from a molten brass into a sand form during the manufacturing process. It would be nice if it comes in polished form from the manufacturer

To be admitted as a member, I am required to polish the BENT until it shines. In other words, I should be able see a reflection on the surface of the BENT itself. It is said that the BENT represents my character and therefore polishing the bent represents my character

I would have to get down to the tools store one of these days to get a filer and the necessary polishing equipment that I needed to get this done. I have never expected myself to learn how to polish a chunk of brass. This should be an experience I would hardly forget. I would post more information about this soon.
