KIDZONE
The Southland Wooworkers Guild has been involved in this program for a few succesfull years now supplying a range of wooden kitset items which the attending children can put together with a few nails and a bit of hammering.
Always quite a popular item in the 'show' so there is a need for a great number of kitsets.
Making the parts of the kits is all done by local members of the woodworking guild en is a mindboggling sight to behold if one looks at the sheer number( thousands ) of bits and bobs of wood that are required and ' manufactured ' , packaged and stored.
Here are some pictures to give you an idea what is involved;
wood guild workshop
marking out before the bits are cut
cutting team in action
fiddly time consuming work
no room for errors
pre drilling thousands of holes
blocks and more blocks ..
only a few here
a good start..
a few hundred here all sanded and ready
all packaged and stored
A few more weeks work ahead for the crew of members and then it's all go at Kidzone 2022.
