-Henry Ford

Good Morning,

Welcome to the December, 2024 newsletter by MAKE Publishing! We appreciate all of you coming along our journey to educate, inspire, and equip the next generation to win in manufacturing this year.

As we prepare for a new year, we are reminded of the opportunities that lie ahead when we take a new approach. Our team at MAKE was thrilled to introduce kids to a new way of learning about manufacturing in 2024 and look forward to preparing many more next year! Together we can make manufacturing better in the future!

Hydraulic Power is all around! This page in Blake Explores Manufacturing highlights the manufacturing process for tractors. Many tractors, and other large pieces of equipment, use Fluid Power & Hydraulics to operate. Cool!

Build

This month we are thrilled to team up with Force America, Leaders in Fluid Power and Hydraulic Systems. This month they showed our Future Makers how to make their own Hydraulic Claw from this kit by Newton’s Lab. The kits contains all pieces and instructions to make one just like the below image - enjoy!

Experience

The Make Publishing Team, and many kids from Minnesota, were honored to spend a part of our Christmas Break at Force America’s new headquarters in Savage MN learning about Fluid Power and Hydraulic Systems. Thank you to Force America for leading this educational manufacturing experience! Our Future Makers will not soon forget it.

Did your child like learning about manufacturing? Please see all we have going on at MAKE Publishing and share this email with a friend!
