Small-ish Projects for High Schoolers

log holder for by the fire place with some tools would be good . are you looking for several projects to do in the next 18 weeks or one big one to cover the hole time??
depending on the suplies available a fule tank for the back of a truck is a good chance to put in some long TIG beads..

Are you asking from a teacher perspective or a student perspective?

Look at the top of your screen .... point to "Industries and Interests", find "Welding Projects" and click. Several things with instructions and plans at the top; then off to the right on that page is a link to many pages of ideas and concepts (no plans on these, you take an idea and do your own engineering and designing).

Or click on the Green "Welding Projects" Pop-Up Window- top right of this thread

A rod holder. It was my first welding project after learning the basics.

Basically, it's a box, with 4 slots that hold rod on an angle, and a larger box where the stubs end up!

This only makes sense if you are going to weld more after you finish the project.

Don't forget about the idea gallery. You can get there from industries and interests or here's the link: http://www.millerwelds.com/interests...ound-the-home/

In the last couple of days, I've been working on adding descriptions for most of the existing projects, many of which tells you what materials are used. I hope to finish and post today!?

Thanks for all of the ideas! I'm asking from a teacher perspective, by the way. I don't think any of the students that are signed up have much, if any, experience welding, so I'll be starting with the very basics!
