Most years we make wheels. We have a large team and all of the students have machine shop training provide by team members in the fall. The students take pride in what the team makes and it provides project management training in scheduling shop time. I just wish the Middle school still had the foundry that they had when I went there in 1970. We could pour aluminium wheels that could be machined in less time. As a seventh grader I would love doing it and it would help to inspire at a younger age.
