Makerspace Day Camp

Design and Make Day Camps for middle school and high school students! Learn 3D design and get hands on casting metal fantasy pewter coins. Scholarships available, see Eventbrite description for application information.

Students will design and laser cut a billet mold, and pour their own 12 oz pewter fantasy coin. We will start with the design of the coin and mold parts in a vector editing program. Students will then use the laser cutter to engrave their design in MDF and cut out the parts. We will then stack the mold together and pour in molten pewter to make the coin. Finally we will use the band saw and belt sander to remove the button and finish the coins.
