I had the pleasure of leading a deep dive into Artificial Dyes and Patina today with some great Ag/FFA folks at Imbler High School. We started the day in the classroom learning about the different products, techniques, and safety practices involved in coloring and finishing metal. Then we headed to the shop—and even outside the shop—to put those ideas into action.

There were plenty of colors, creativity, and a few “I didn’t know metal could do that!” moments throughout the day. It was awesome to watch everyone experiment with new techniques and brainstorm ways to bring more artistic metalworking projects into their programs.

Thanks to everyone who attended and to Imbler High School for hosting. Days like these remind me that Ag teachers and FFA advisors are some of the most innovative people around. Now go make some cool stuff—and if it turns purple when it wasn’t supposed to, just call it artistic expression! 😄 (pictures don’t do justice on how they look)

Today marks the completion of a project that our welding and fabrication students can be incredibly proud of.

After months of planning, measuring, cutting, fitting, welding, grinding, and finishing, the new bridge for Belt Park is officially complete. This project provided our students with a unique opportunity to apply the skills they have learned in the shop to a real-world structure that will serve our community for years to come.

As an instructor, there is nothing more rewarding than watching students take ownership of a project of this scale. They faced challenges, solved problems, worked as a team, and consistently demonstrated professionalism and craftsmanship throughout the entire process. The finished bridge is a reflection of their hard work, dedication, and attention to detail.

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work alongside such talented young men and women every day. They continue to prove that skilled trades are alive and well, and the future of our industry is in good hands.

A huge thank you to everyone who supported this project, and congratulations to our students for leaving a lasting mark on our community. The next time you visit Belt Park and cross that bridge, know that it was designed, built, and installed by some outstanding students who should be very proud of what they accomplished.

In just a short week away we will have this beautiful bridge installed to its final destination.
