This course is designed to further a student’s interest and skills within woodworking and materials. Building upon their knowledge and skills from the previous courses, students will learn more advanced techniques while designing and completing more advanced projects. As students design and create projects, a strong emphasis will be placed on design and engineering. Students will learn how to design on the computer and use the CNC machine to either create or enhance their projects. Students who take this course are responsible for paying the cost of the materials used. The base fee for the class is currently $45 and will function as a "bank" for students to draw from. Any materials used over that price will need to be paid via obligations.
