After trying our new "Adv. Digital Fab" course last year, I wanted to add new content to my curriculum I wrote in 2021. It's now available on our school website to share w/ the #FabLab network!!

Just got trained on Trinity HS's new @Tormach CNC lathe! I designed a simple spin top project that I'm thinking will be a great beginner lesson for my future classes! #MadeWithTormach #manufacturing #Tormach @TRINITY_MLUCAS @BotsIQSWPA

A before/after pic of Trinity HS's newest upgrade! We replaced our crucible furnace that we've used since the 1960's, followed by replacing our forge that we've had since 1989. Grateful to be 1 of the last high schools to provide #foundry & #forging in our #metallurgy curriculum
