Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Seeking 2 Dremel Tools and Accessory kits so students can practice Power Tool and safety equipment usage in class. The tools and kits will be used to allow students to fine tune 3d printed and other project parts for fitment. These precision adjustments will allow students wo print complex assemblies and create motion within them without needed to physically sand or having to reprint an assembly which may just need a slight adjustment to work for their intended application. This will allow us to conserve money, which we can use to purchase additional supplies which exposes students to more projects.
