                        WEB: What did I have to do to earn this merit badge?

This is me with Jennifer Clegg-
Merit Badge Counselor for Pulp and Paper.

To make paper, first you place
old paper, rags, wood, etc., in a blender.

Second, you blend it all together.

Third, you pour the pulp into a basin.

Fourth, you remove some of the pulp
and form it on a screen.

Fifth, you remove the pulp from the screen
and place it on wax paper.

A day later, when the pulp has had
a chance to dry, you have paper!
