Fun at-home project!
We did this as a 7+ year old class last summer. Enjoy, and keep those hands (and minds) busy building cool stuff through the winter!

We have the goal (and ability) to make the 2028 Summer Olympic medals — and it will involve the community, athletes, and every participating nation. Colorado Springs is Olympic City USA. I don’t want some massive multi-national jewelry company who just doesn’t care about the project to make them. It’ll be Paris medals all over. This is personal for us, just like the USAFA sabers!! @Olympics@TeamUSA@realDonaldTrump@JDVance@ChristineTatum@PeteHegseth
Work took me today to Colorado Springs and @KilroysWorkshop, where owner Ron Hardman showed me the beautiful sabers his team is manufacturing for the U.S. Air Force Academy since bringing the contract back into the U.S. from production in Germany. Pieces and parts have been redesigned to produce a sturdier blade, grip and scabbard — and a more detailed pommel depicting the globe. And how beautiful it is to see each saber etched with “Made in the USA.” #USAFA #USAF #trades #madeintheusa
@dbroussa@KilroysWorkshop Hear! Hear! I feel like this particular manufacturing is something President @realDonaldTrump and #SecDef@PeteHegseth should know about. It is beautiful to see the finished sabers — and the pride taken in the production of each one.
Here’s the animatic for the new Kilroy’s Workshop #animation. Looking for a great way to get this into full production, but plugging away at what we can do right now. Getting our 2D character into #3D while working with some great animators who have a passion for this project and youth education.
Students designed their cars with a chamber for #rockets and no wings!
Fusing #Tesla and #SpaceX tech .. why didn’t @elonmusk think of this one! (He probably did and thought better of it — see the last clip).
With over 4K students ages 9+ attending at least one class per year, and another 4 schools slated to open this year, we’re changing how trades education is done. 1/3 ADHD students. 10% are ASD. All are amazing!! We make cool things in our shop but our true product is people and community. #stem #tradeseducation
