🚨 BREAKING: I am being told that @ManUtd are trying to negotiate a fee with Real Madrid for Varane, the prospect is at the moment that Raphaël Varane will become a Manchester player in the following days/weeks. However this could change if he decides to stick with Real. #Varane

Fantastic product from one of our mini companies and their teacher Mr. Potter. A mixture of laser engraved and hand etched designs.

[ColChraoibhinMTW/CS @ColChraoibhinCS]

One of Mr Potters mini companies has made this with offcuts and recycled materials. Acrylic protective film just needs to be removed by the new owner

One of the most used machines in the woodwork room

@dj_mckeown @OSVentilator @ConallLaverty @SylviaLeatham @CCRIreland Would any of you know of a supplier for 0.5mm polypropylene to help make headbands for face shields? Some teachers around the country with laser cutters looking to get involved in the effort

[ColChraoibhinMTW/CS @ColChraoibhinCS]

@Callen105 @BenchspaceCork A teacher was able to track down a company in Dublin but they are going to use their stock of polypropylene to manufacture their own headbands which is great. Kitronik are low on stock but I will keep looking

@BenchspaceCork Hi lads,
Do you know of any supply of polypropylene sheets 0.5mm to make face shields. I have a laser cutter in my school and would be happy to get involved if I could locate the material.

[ColChraoibhinMTW/CS @ColChraoibhinCS]

@Callen105 @BenchspaceCork Hi Chris, well done on all the work you have put in. I've been following along and it's great to see the impact you and others are having. I was hoping to go down the route as in the attached video for making the headbands if I could find the material https://t.co/IJYd571EUq

@JCt4ed @IgnatiusDineen @waterfordit Is this still going ahead as normal?

Excellent work from 3 of our L2LP students. Loads of skills used- measuring, sawing, chiseling, gluing, sanding, drilling along with some polyart @JCTL1LPs_L2LPs

@eustace_stephen Hi Steven, I am the new ICT coordinator in my school. We are in the early stages of moving to office 365 and I am wondering is there anywhere that I can upskill on the different aspects of office apps before we have staff training in the new school year?

Mr. Potters dragon has got its wings!

[ColChraoibhinMTW/CS @ColChraoibhinCS]

@JCt4ed Any chance of coming further south if the interest keeps up?

Mr. Potter in the metalwork department has been at different flying machines for a while. Based on a sketch by Leonardo da Vinci

[ColChraoibhinMTW/CS @ColChraoibhinCS]

@liamkearney14 Absolutely and the enthusiasm to match

[ColChraoibhinMTW/CS @ColChraoibhinCS]

Some more of his efforts. A horse shoe sculpture on display in Coolagown, a kinetic water sculpture and a life size War Horse puppet

Mr. Potter with another amazing project. All in his own time with the help of some of his students

Hot off the press. The 2nd year TG class had only 1 condition, their earphone design had to incorporate some part of any topic covered so far this year. Axial symmetry was popular
