Cabanga nje uqopha amajika amahle eqhweni lokushushuluza owaklama futhi wazenza wena njengoba uslayida wehla ngemithambeka.
Kubafundi abane be-Liberty Bell High School abadizayina futhi bakhe unyaka wesibili, lowo mbono uzoba ngokoqobo uma beqeda ukwenza ama-skis abo angokwezifiso - aphelele ngamadizayini amalogo okuqala - kamuva kulo nyaka.
Le phrojekthi yaqala ekilasini ngonyaka odlule, lapho abafundi babephupha ngokuzakhela amabhodi eqhwa.I-Architecture/Design and Outdoor Recreation Uthisha u-Wyatt Southworth, nakuba engumshwibi, akakaze enze amabhodi eqhwa ngaphambilini, kodwa ukujabulele ukuthola ithuba lokuba bafunde. ndawonye.”Ucwaningo olunzulu lwenqubo yokukhiqiza nokuklama,” kusho yena.
Ngemva kocwaningo lokuqala, ikilasi lathatha uhambo ngo-Okthoba liya ku-Lithic Skis e-Peshastin, inkampani eklama futhi yakhe ama-skis enziwe ngokwezifiso ezenziwe ngezandla. I-Southworth ithe abanikazi baphana ngokuhlanganyela isikhathi sabo nolwazi nabafundi.
Izisebenzi zase-Lithic zibahambisa ezigabeni ezehlukene zenqubo yokuklama/yokwakha—hhayi nje ukushushuluza, kodwa amathuluzi azenzayo.” Sibone amathuluzi amahle abawaklame wona ngokwawo,” kusho u-Eli Neitlich omkhulu.
E-Lithic, badlula inqubo yokwenza ibhodi leqhwa kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekupheleni, bedweba amathiphu kanye nemininingwane yokwazisa inqubo yabo yokwenza. Ekilasini, abafundi baklama eyabo imishini yokushushuluza nezihlibhi. Bakha nomshini wokunyathelisa wokunamathisela i-gluing izingqimba zokushushuluza ndawonye.
Bazenzela awabo ama-stencil e-skiing nge-high density particleboard, bawasika nge-bandsaw, base bewafaka ngesihlabathi esiyisiyingi ukuze basuse ukungapheleli.
Ukuzenzela ama-skis abo akubandakanyi nje kuphela izinhlobo ezahlukene zama-skis, kodwa futhi nocwaningo oluningi emithonjeni yokuhlinzeka.Ngaphezu kwezinkinga ze-supply chain, u-Southworth uthe babe nenhlanhla ukuthola ababekudinga.
Ngosayizi abayisisekelo, izifundo ziqala ngamabhodi eqhwa ezentengiselwano, kodwa zilingana nezidingo zawo.Umdala u-Kieren Quigley uthe baklame ama-skis abe banzi kakhulu ukuze intante kangcono kumpushana.
Abafundi baphinde bahlole ubunkimbinkimbi bokusebenza kwe-ski nokusebenza, okuhlanganisa izinzuzo kanye nokubi kwesemishi ngokumelene nokwakhiwa kwe-sidewall cap.Bakhethe isemishi ngokuhlala kwalo kanye nokuqina kwe-torsional, okuvimbela ukushwiba eqhweni ekujikeni nasekuguqukeni njengoba uphenduka.
Njengamanje bakha ama-cores ayi-10 afanayo, enziwe ngokhuni lwe-poplar kanye nomlotha, abawanamathisela ku-formwork futhi basike ngomzila.
Ama-skis angama-Contours abenza bagwaze ukhuni kancane ngendiza, okwenza ijika kancane kancane ukusuka esihlokweni nasemsila, okuwugqinsi olu-2mm kuphela, ukuya phakathi nendawo yokushushuluza (11mm).
Baphinde basika isisekelo se-ski kusukela kusisekelo se-polyethylene futhi badale inkaba encane yokufaka unqenqema lwensimbi.Bazogaya isisekelo ekupheleni kwenqubo ukuze balungise kahle ukushushuluza.
I-ski eqediwe izoba isangweji le-nylon top, i-fiberglass mesh, i-wood core, i-fiberglass eyengeziwe, nesisekelo se-polyethylene, konke okuhlanganiswe ne-epoxy.
Bazokwazi ukwengeza idizayini yomuntu siqu phezulu.Ikilasi lidingida ilogo ye-Steezium Ski Works — inhlanganisela yegama elithi “steez,” echaza isitayela esikhululekile, esipholile sokushushuluza, kanye nokungaphimiseli kahle kwesici esithi cesium — lokho. babekwazi ukubhala ebhodini.
Njengoba abafundi besebenza kuwo wonke amapheya amahlanu e-skis ndawonye, banenketho yokudala imiklamo yabo yedizayini yezinga eliphezulu.
I-Snowboarding iwumsebenzi ofisa kakhulu emfundweni yokuklama neyokwakha yabafundi. Amaphrojekthi weminyaka edlule ahlanganisa amatafula namashalofu, izigubhu ze-cajón, amashedi asengadini kanye nama-cellars.”Kuyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu, futhi igebe likhulu,” kusho uQuigley.
Lo msebenzi wokuqala ulungiselela ukukhiqizwa kwesikhathi esizayo.I-Southworth ithi bangakwazi ukujwayela umshini wokunyathelisa ezinhlotsheni ezahlukene zama-skis nabashushuluzi futhi bangasebenzisa i-stencil iminyaka.
Bathemba ukuthi bazoqedela ukuhlolwa kwe-skis kulobu busika, futhi ngokufanelekile bonke abafundi bazoba nesethi yama-skis ekupheleni konyaka.
“Kuyindlela enhle yokufunda amakhono engeziwe,” kusho uQuigley.” Ingxenye ebaluleke kakhulu ukuba nama-skis owakhayo futhi oziklama ngokwakho.”
Lolu hlelo luyisingeniso esihle sokukhiqiza okungasindi, kusho uSouthworth, futhi abafundi banethuba lokuqala inkampani yangokwezifiso yokushushuluza ngemva kokuphothula iziqu. " uthe.
