| Power Tower |
by Philip Sheffield

I like football and fishing. I
wanted to know more about the Mesonet tower, so I decided to build one. I chose
this project because I thought that it would be more of a challenge to build
a model.
I built my tower out of small wooden dowel rods and sprayed it silver.
Then I made the bare soil temperature plot and the sod temperature plot. I made
my tripod and sprayed it silver. I then made my rain gauge and other weather
instruments. I painted and labeled them. I then made the poster.
My conclusion
is that building the Mesonet tower was a lot harder than I thought it would be.
I also thought it would take about a week after school, but it took three. The
backboard was the hardest of all. By doing this project I learned that this was
more work than I thought and would not do another because it is too hard.
I would
like to thank my parents, Mr. and Mrs. Doug Sheffield. |
