With these funds I will purchase some outdated equipment that has been in use for over 20 years. 

My students deserve to have working equipment to effectively learn in the area of Metals Technology. 

I would like to use the money as part of a recovery of broken machinery. Grinders, lathes, welders and a variety of other machines break every year and with a small budget it is difficult, sometimes impossible, to keep machines working. Below are links of some of the items we are in need of:

D28112 4 1/2" Small Angle Grinder 11,000 RPM,5/8"-11 Spindle,10.0 Amps ($89.95)

Grizzly G0765 - 7" X 14" Variable-Speed Benchtop Lathe ($595 not including shipping)
