Since we were in the basement of a Roman Catholic church, we were not allowed to hammer when there was a funeral upstairs. This was woodshop in the sense that we pounded tacks into plywood with hammers. We then wrapped colored sewing thread around the tacks to make pretty designs.

The Mid-Valley School District rented the basement of St. I said that there was not enough space in our school for a real woodshop.

I told them that at my school we did string art in woodshop. They discussed the special tools that they had used and the skills that they had mastered.


Some students were proud of the items that they had made. We were discussing projects in woodshop class in junior high school. I recall a conversation among students in a dining hall, while I was attending Penn State.
