Welded Steel Desk Clock Project Bundle (Digital Download)
Teach students the fundamentals of metal fabrication while creating a functional project they'll proudly display for years. This Welded Steel Desk Clock Project Bundle combines CNC plasma cutting, MIG welding, grinding, finishing, and final assembly into a fast-paced project that's perfect for beginning welding students.
Students fabricate a modern steel clock by welding two flat bar supports to a CNC plasma-cut clock face before installing a standard quartz clock movement. The finished project makes an excellent desk clock, shelf display, or personalized gift while reinforcing essential fabrication and welding skills.
