Description


This is a laboratory course for inducting students into the safe operation of hand tools, power tools, stationary machinery, and other equipment for the fabrication and finishing of industrial design models and prototypes. Instructional demonstrations of workshop techniques are followed by "hands- on" student exercises, using a wide variety of modelling materials, including timber, plastics, and metals. Successful completion of this course is required before students will be allowed to use the Industrial Design Laboratory for their design studio projects.
