In Mr. Siegrist's HS Manufacturing class, students took on the exciting challenge of building homemade gumball machines entirely out of wood. This hands-on project allowed them to explore woodworking techniques while creating functional, custom-designed machines. Using only wood, along with basic tools and materials, the students carefully measured, cut, and assembled their gumball machines, incorporating moving parts that would release gumballs when activated. Throughout the project, students honed their problem-solving skills and attention to detail, while also gaining a deeper appreciation for craftsmanship. The final result was a set of unique, wooden gumball machines that showcased both creativity and technical skill.
