hi
I've been machining for over 30 yrs but I was wondering if I can get some help from you guys. I'm a member at my local Maker's space and I'm trying to setup a basic machining class. Most of my students will be artists or extreme entry level so alot of the class will be on safety but I'll need to have basic measuring and basic operation too...the goal is to have them be able to do basic stuff on there own after taking the class. I'm also trying to come up with a project for them to make ( in the limited timeframe )..I am also doing a similar thing with a lathe so I may even try to come up with a project that uses both machines...so I have cross posted on the lathe section too

Class will consist of 2-4 students and a timeframe of 1-2 days of 4-8 hours

Has anyone attempted some thing similar?

attached picks of machines we are using...thanks for any help
