This group was just part of a busload form the school, with many such busloads from there, other elementary and secondary schools viewing the exhibit Thursday, Friday and Monday during school hours. Note the hand-powered drill press at the left foreground and other augers used in making holes in wooden beans for dowels, which held them together."
