The brainstorming that ARFCOM contributes is one of the most important parts of this adventure. I'm sure we will come up with more ideas to add as the display starts to come together. Maybe a Spitfire coming out of the hanger? The display will be a tribute to evolution of fighter aircraft.
We will also be creating a WWII hanger/airfield scene in the background that will have 3D elements. This will give us enough room for a 15.5' long x 11' wide Raptor. We will be moving it up ant towards the right wall. The current display area has our 1/2 scale Sopwith Camel already displayed there. They had to finish up the Mission To Mars display, cut short by Covid, and then build Liberty Ships to add to the U-boat display. There are many seniors that are just a little miffed at not being able to see this one through. The fundraiser will be near the end of the project, so not for almost a year. We will again have to have a t-shirt sale to celebrate the adventure and raise the funds needed. The generosity in both funds, equipment, and advice in our previous years have made all the difference in being able to spend that much money on such a project. Our last three projects have ended up costing about $2500 each. Some students might only spend an hour working on this, some three weeks, and some might spend several hours every day the entire year. For those new to our adventures, roughly 60-80 students from grades 9-12 will work the entire school year to build from scratch a permanent 3D display in an area roughly 16’wide x 23'long x 20’high. My Art classes will again work with CAD students, Welding students, Woodworking students, and Robotic students to try to create our next display. Thank you all, again, for being such a great community. These projects have rejuvenated my teaching style, given students something they love coming to school for, and providing experiences that they truly value. I know that this year and next will be no different, and our success will be attributable to the incredible help that so many of you provide. I will try to recreate what was posted in the archived thread.įor the last nine years?, ARFCOM has been an essential part of the adventure my students' experience with the building of permanent large installation projects here at our high school. They are getting the finishing touches on our Liberty ships right now.įor those wondering what happened to this thread.someone forgot to make sure it didn't get archived. Several more will start working on it very soon. Several students have already put many hours into the new display.
