In Metal Fabrication, our first-year students are already making their mark.
Grade 9 morning students recently took on a real shop project after two new welding demo booths were installed. Additional exhaust was needed, so under the guidance of Mr. Palmer, students drafted plans for a custom hood, then cut, bent, and assembled copper and brass to bring it to life.
They followed with precise measurements for the ductwork, rounding, beading, and crimping galvanized metal before seamlessly connecting the finished system.
From the blueprint to installation, this demonstrates hands-on learning.
