Introduction to Metalworking
Camp Overview
Have you ever wanted to work with metal? Now is your chance. During this intensive week, students are introduced to sheet metal working, the lathe and the mill in the Innovation Lab. Get a crash course in the tools of the trade including layout tools, files and abrasives. Work to a precision narrower than a human hair and learn methods to cut, bend and join metals like aluminum, brass and steel. Make a variety of cool and useful projects to bring home. This program involves some light homework, such as watching videos or sketching ideas to prepare for the next day’s activities.
