I think that violates quite a few safety rules, doesn't it? It would on our team at least.

Heh this is actually a funny story.

Once in awhile Andy brings the young ones in to be with their dad when he is at the shop all day and they play in the back with the old playing field balls or whatever, but today when most of us were gathered around the adults table in the office area, she came over and sat on the bench and randomly picked up the file and started doing exactly what she saw her dad do minutes before (I think Andy was working on that part). Heh one of the adults told anyone with a camera to get a picture of that.

So thats how that picture came to be.

She turned her head as soon as I took the pic, so it didnt get the full effect of her working

Child labor? What about using students who are only 12 or 13 (aka before they're able to legally work) =)

Also child labor is very common at our school, especially with little brothers coming in and then us making them do slave labor

Sheesh

LOL!

Rachel wanted to come into the shop that day, and for most of the day she kept asking me to do certain jobs. First, I had her measuring our lovely assortment of drill bits with calipers and putting them back into their rightful homes... but reading the calipers were a bit too much for her.

Then, she was helping me run a mill... and she had safety glasses on (she would turn the crank for the x direction).

Then, she was filing those parts that you see in the pic that DJ took... and I know that she started out with safety glasses on when she started filing... hmmm. Maybe she was looking away, knowing that her eyes were in danger.

Some of you might've seen her pic before. It used to be on the front page of the RCU website.

She has discovered a few games to play with the totes... there is "treasure hunt". Hide a "treasure" in one of the totes and a "bomb" (something that simply represents a bomb, of course) and have someone else search for the treasure. If they find the bomb, they lose... if they find the treasure, they win.

Also, there is the game of finding spare change under the platform/ramp. With the polycarbonate sides mounted, it's pretty much impossible to get anything that falls through the grating.

And, yes... DJ is a good role model. Honestly, if my kids grow up to be like the students on the TechnoKats, then my wife and I will be very pleased.

Andy B.
