the XXL shakypoo3 class is being posted.
Next on my list is the Acrylic Bender. It is quite simple to use so I think a series of structured demonstrations is all that is necessary. There is a simple jig we can build to help with the bending. We need to build a 5" tall box to help set the plastics on so it is at the same height as the heating element. This will help with larger work pieces. Some wood angle blocks will also be needed. I’ll see when my schedule allows for demos and add that to the calendar. I’ll restart a list of needed tools for the committee meeting on the 26th.
Along with the regular machining using the shakypoo, I’ll add in the use of a diamond drag bit for engraving some nice figures in platics/glass. This should parley into a future class on doing lighted signs. We can tap our friends in Electronics to help with the LED strips.
We received a nice donation of Kydex so I can see a class on holster and knife sheath building. And/or hybrid kydex leather holsters. We can likely incorporate the vacuum former into this.
Cheers! Oink!
