STATUS:CONFIRMED
DESCRIPTION:Cranks wind\, gears turn\, dragons chomp\, and birds fly. Welco
 me to the whimsical world of automata: simple wooden machines that delight
  and amaze. Enjoy a five-day exploration of the art of making wooden machi
 nes and the mechanisms that make things move. Starting with the design pro
 cess in cardboard\, students will learn mechanical principles by creating 
 simple cams and levers. The instructor will provide a basic kit with templ
 ates for selected gears. Students will cut\, drill\, and assemble their pr
 ojects\, as well as design and craft the figure\, animal\, or (insert the 
 object of your imagination here) that surprises and delights viewers when 
 it comes to life with the turn of a crank. Previous woodworking and/or woo
 dcarving experience is helpful but not required.
