WKS112412: Make a Chisel with Hand Tools!
Learn how to make tools using the most basic hand metalworking techniques and simple heat treating. This is the method I use to make chisels, plane irons and turning tools at home with no power tools at all.
We will take a piece of stock tool steel, cut and shape it with hacksaw and file, temper and anneal it with a propane torch and simple home-made forge, and finally mount it in a handle.
If you have taken the Metal Shop SBU, that is great but not necessary!

WKS508: Circuit Bending Workshop
Do you like taking things apart as well as building them? Do you like hacking things to make them do stuff they weren't intended to do? Do you like making strange sounds? If so, then circuit bending is right up your alley.
After an introduction to the basics of circuit bending, participants in this workshop will be able to choose a toy, take it apart and try to make the weirdest sounds possible.
Toys will be provided for you to choose from, or you can bring your own (older VTech toys tend to work the best).
