"First Metal Machining Studio Meeting"

There will be a meeting of the Metal Machining Studio interest group on Tuesday, Aug. 19th at 7 PM at the Rolling Bay BARN.

This will be the first meeting of the interest group and we are interested in doing the following:

  • Acquainting everyone with the machinery and tools we have acquired to date and the anticipated additions when the Big BARN is constructed.
  • Finding out from those of expressing an interest, what machinery and tools you would like to see included in the studio with an eye toward revising the tentative equipment list.
  • Presenting to the group the anticipated initial courses and qualifications to be given in Metal Machining which are:
    • Basic operation of the Smithy Granite lathe/milling machine/drill press and the metal cutting band saw
    • An introductory class in metal machining which will include a project for each student that the student can take home.
  • Asking for suggestions from the group for additional courses and open shop sessions.
  • Seeking assistance from the group for course instructors, open shop monitors and other coordination functions.
Of interest, Jane Martin, head of the Jewelry and Fine Metals Studio, has already used the Smithy to smooth and polish dapping hammers and has expressed an interest in having her students make custom hammers for jewelry making.

See you there on Tuesday.
