As part of the grade 9 construction technology course, excited MaST students have been creating working 'gumball machines' from rough hewn eastern white pine.
Students work collaboratively in groups the during problem solving and design stage, once complete students work individually on the fabrication, assembly and finishing of the project. Parts are machined by the students to specification using accurate measuring techniques, knowledge of and safe use of the heavy machinery and hand tools.
During this project students further improved their relationship with accuracy and tolerance in measuring and layout. They problem solved through the design obstacles and demonstrated proficiency using woodworking power tool and hand tools.
