This week members of the MenShed welcomed kids participating in the holiday program managed by the Wanaka Recreation Centre.

We had prepared for the visit by fabricating components of wooden crates ready for assembly. The kids used a simple jig to complete the job with some precise (and not so precise) hammering.

Its great to see kids, some of whom had never used a hammer, create something to take home.
