[Tinkering] Simple Machine: The Wedge

We continue with our classes with Kami Wilt from the Austin Tinkering School. This week's Simple Machine was The Wedge.

First off, safety glasses!



Did you know that scissors are considered a wedge? As well as a spatula?



A hatchet, of course.





Using a saw to cut a wedge.









On to the Hammer and Nail









Hammer + Nails + Rubber Bands = AWESOME Geoboard!







We LOVE tinkering! And we LOVE Kami!
