Effective Team Reflection

In the automotive program this quarter I didn't know too much of anything about the brakes . In this quarter i started learning things that I thought I wouldn't . The few things that I learned to do was how to be organized , how to machine a drum , and how to take a caliper off . I started off knowing nothing about those things but within these 9 weeks i've learned how to do these things . I haven't just learned how to do these things on paper but i've also learned how to do them on a live car in the shop.

First you put the cutting bits in the middle of the drum and make it where it's touching a little bit. Then you have to turn the dials to zero and then put the cutting bits at the end of the drum. Once you have done that you change the dial to a 4 thousands cut for example. After that you let the machine do its work
