The Pokers (tool used for...well...just about anything you can think of)





 
Oh so simple, yet incredibly meticulous and time consuming to make (at least for someone just starting out).  These two pokers were the first project that the class completed.  They were used to get everyone familiar with using a bench motor, how to properly use a file/s, what type of safety equipment to wear, how to bevel an edge, how to smooth the ends of a part, and the most important skill - how to pay close attention to detail.  This project was completed in our first week of class (back in August) and it was a good starting point to lead into how to use the different tools.
 
Really great project that I will always remember as, the starting POINT of my career (please forgive the cheesy pun).
