Building Apprentices

Our Carpentry area was very popular today.  The addition of the vice to our table allowed us to use the handsaw and hacksaw easily.  Tool belts were handy for holding our builders pencil and tape measures too.  The hand drill was of particular interest to Nate - however we managed to bend the drill bit!  Perhaps I hadn't installed it properly.  Wood was measured and cut - "measure twice and cut once".  Blake, Nate and Mathew even painted their work.  Learning how to use the tools safely is part of the process in becoming a builder/carpenter.  Well done team.
