This summer Laney College hosted a two week summer class for underprivileged high school students in the Machine Technology department.&#0160; Students were invited based on recommendations from their high school teachers and guidance counselors.&#0160; The class was no cost for the students.&#0160;&#0160; The students learned SolidWorks to design a small trophy car.&#0160; They then took their SolidWorks designs over to the machine shop where they imported the files into MasterCAM and fabricated their cars and put them together.&#0160;

mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA\">The kids had a great time.&#0160; Many of them were so turned on by the program, they now see a career for themselves as future designers and machinists.&#0160; Additionally, they got a better understanding of why math is so important.&#0160;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I hope you enjoy this project as much as I did.&#0160; Marie<br \/><span class=\"asset asset-generic at-xid-6a00d83451706569e2013485989eb6970c\"><a href=\"https:\/\/solidworks.typepad.com\/files\/car-assembly_elise-moss.zip\">Download Car Assembly_Elise Moss<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was fortunate to receive this project from Elise Moss to share with you.&#0160;
