Tools and Materials and Wood Still Needed

Grant has invested in the tools needed to begin teaching students how to make things. Our budget is somewhat limited, but we won't let it interfere with our dreams!

GeoTech students will be working with students from Audio Engineering, and Engineering classes this year to fabricate new acoustic panels to enhance musical performances here at Grant (and because the panels will be designed to be transportable) and at the Marshall campus when we move there.

As we work on prototypes and towards the finished panels we hope to try several assembly techniques we are not yet equipped for.


We have created a GeoTech "wish list" on Amazon, but you may have some of the tools we need collecting dust around the house.

We are looking for Kreg Pocket Hole Jigs and clamps. We need additional screw drivers, pliers,  wrenches, and bar clamps. We hope to get a HEPA Shop Vac. At this point we have limited electrical supply, but other tools and machines could help build the program as well, if you have something you think we might make good use of, do let us know!

We also love having wood to make things with. If you have a home project with left over, but useful scraps we may have good use for them! Email teacher Jamie Zartler at jzartler@pps.net if you have material you think we might want.

Thank you,
Jamie Zartler and Doug Mella, GeoTech Teachers
