A program for students in Central Virginia dedicated to teaching young men and women about all of the industrious uses of creativity. We are currently developing a piano design. We practice drafting from board, to CAD, to product. We CNC, Lasercut, Sculpt, and 3d Print our creations and thinks of new ways to Make a better world.

We have been teaching board drafting from an old textbook and it has been awesome. The kids are loving the class and not just because we crack jokes. The information in this field has not changed much in the last century. CAD sure has changed since it's inception and that has required us teachers to get to our study. The folks at Autodesk have been busy developing new software and we have been busy trying to get in touch with them. We have meet some good folks along the way. We learned o rotate a pumpkin. We drafted sheet metal for laser cutting. I will post more on that tomorrow.
