Monday / Tuesday Sept. 23 / 24

Classes continue to be in different places.


BEGINING THIS WEEK GRADING BASED ON OUR CLASSROOM ETHOS AND DAILY CAREER RELATED STANDARDS (CRS) IS OCCURRING.

Be: On Time: On Budget; Work: According to Plan; Safely; Together!

Also, synergy now shows all of the machine tests and demos for the semester. The machine tests and demos for first semester are listed in first.

We are all working to be able to:

Understand how to use a drill press; including the use of "backer boards;" fences; and clamps.

Most classes have had demonstrations, and a few students have had a chance to use a bandsaw and a table saw.

Students practiced using various tools to find the center of a board: methods practiced included: measuring; use of a combo square with guess and check; intersecting arcs using a compass; and "stepping off" with a pair of dividers.

Later this week students will be asked to demonstrate proper layout and marking (as above); and set up and operation of the drill press in order to help produce the cubbyhole boards for the ceramics class. This will be an official attempt at the Drill Press Demo.
