There is someone restoring an old wagon on the internet as well.

I think this guy has run into more problems than us, but I am jealous that his is a manual transmission!!!

Digital Profiles: YOU MUST HAVE ONE!!!

These days everyone and everything and their mothers are being "Googled".. What happens when nothing comes up?? Does this mean you don't exist? Certaintly NOT! The issue is that you may have great achievements and accomplishments, but the world knows nothing of them.

SO HOW DO YOU PROVE THAT YOU HAVE DONE WHAT YOU SAY YOU'VE DONE??? 

A portfolio, awards, credentials, final products... How many of those can you carry around with you to show when needed? What if you applied for a job, and before they considered your application, they "googled" you and when the results came in there was nothing about you.. NEXTTTT!! PICTURES OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN..


Check out this MHS student's blog. He's posting his explorations and findings. He's already developed a great digital profile.

CNC machine work

Remember the other day I was talking about CNC type machine work. It is basically a type of computer controlled for machines. Any machine that a human can operate can also be operated by a computer. Remember your practice using the plasma cutter.. Check this CNC plasma cutting machine for example:




How about something a little more complex? The CNC 5 axis machining center can make things from scratch and even modify existing engine components. Some start with a solid chunk of material, and some start with an existing component.







Everything must start with design: Check out this site that shows the type of work that can be done with a CNC. Check out these examples

Programming the design in an accurate CAD drawing (computer aided design):
