| Design Students restore museum replica to working order |
|
 |
Design students at Wayne-Finger Lakes Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) restored our dilapidated, leaking waterwheel to “better than” working order. This replica of a 1800s hydropower component has developed into a working system resembling those actually used in 19th century mills. Students in Ross Baglio’s Drafting/CAD class and New Vision engineering program did a wonderful job. Combining students from Honeoye High School, Romulus, Geneva, Dundee and Mid-Lakes, prototypes developed into a successful working waterwheel. Come in and see the finished product… |
