ment where it belongs when he's

through with it for the day, To

help keep all of his gear in one

place, Matt, who last year was

enrolled in a woodworking course

at his school, decided to build a

skateboard rack to hold his board,

kneepads, gloves, and helmet.

One day, his vocational education

teacher, Bart Taylor, happened by

the drill press when Matt was

working on his project. To his

instructor's surprise, Matt was

drilling the holes for his pegs about

halfway through the rack, then

boring a smaller hole centered on

each of the larger ones completely

through the board,

When asked why, Matt told Bart

that he figured if he spaced his

pegs at 4" intervals, once he locat-

ed one stud in the wall to attach

the rack to, one of the other holes

would match up automatically

with another stud. That way, he

also could hide the screw holes

behind the Shaker pegs, (See the

sketch shown above right)

What Matt's adventure in prob-

lem solving shows me is that

woodworkers, no matter what

their age, are at their best when

they're working through the chal-

lenges that every woodworking

project presents. That's when the

breakthroughs occur, the new

methods develop, and shop tips,

such as this one, raise their beauti-

ful heads.

So what does it feel like having a

student who comes up with a

novel solution on his or her own?

Bart says, "It is tnlly thrilling when

a young person produces some-

thing beautiful and useful with

their own hands," And in a more

philosophical vein, he adds, "In

this age of consumerism, entertain-

ment, and ease, let those of us who

are able to produce things empow-

er those who haven't yet tasted the

satisfaction of producing, ".
