Submitted by andrea.pond on

Mr. Powell’s Intro to Manufacturing 1 class has started a toy truck project.  The students are working very hard tracing and cutting out wood pieces and will be assembling the trucks.  The environment in the workshop is very important.  Safety glasses and paying attention to the surroundings is vitally important.  The students are doing an amazing job learning skills they will use in the future.  View the slide show for photos of the finished project and of the students at work.
