My Year 10 and 11 Metal Technology students have been impressive so far this semester with the completion of their very first skills task ‘Making a Metal Die’. For the assessment, students were asked to cut lengths of flat metal into six equal squares, mark and drill each number on the die using an array of tools, prepare the mild steel (low carbon steel) ready for welding, as well as attach the pieces together using a MIG welder and jig of their choice. 

All students completed this task to an excellent standard and demonstrated a high level of competency exemplified in the die you see pictured above. 

I cannot wait to see the students’ fabricating skills deepen and improve even further as we approach our major product in weeks to come!
