Building Canes
Doug Stowe is using the Thin Air Press in a class at the wood shop of Clear Spring School. The Grade 7 and 8 students are building canes to give to their local free medical clinic. What a great project.
Here is the intro to Doug’s blog. I think it says it all.
Wisdom of the Hands
This blog is dedicated to sharing the concept that our hands are essential to learning- that we engage the world and its wonders, sensing and creating primarly through the agency of our hands. We abandon our children to education in boredom and intellectual escapism by failing to engage their hands in learning and making.
Thanks Doug for all your support.

You can see a project made with the thinair press in the Clear Spring Woodshop at the following link. Wisdom of the Hands Dylan used the thinair press to make laminate limbs for his archery bow.
