Our students are taking their welding projects to the next level thanks to the generous support of Build the Future Foundation and Kewaunee Fabrications. Their funding made it possible for us to purchase a brand-new Welding Fab Table, which was proudly bought locally from Gerarden Fabrication & Design in Denmark.
This addition to our welding lab has already made a huge impact. The Fab Table gives our students the chance to practice precision fabrication, refine their welding techniques, and experience the kind of setup they’ll encounter in professional shops. Its sturdy design, adjustable fixtures, and precision layout make it the perfect platform for accurate, safe, and creative metalwork.
Our welding program and STORM Manufacturing classes focus on developing both skill and confidence. With this new equipment, students are already working on exciting projects like smoking racks for LaFonds Fish Market, bike racks for the City of Kewaunee, and many other small structural frames. Each project helps them apply classroom learning to real-world applications while understanding the importance of craftsmanship and teamwork.
We’re deeply grateful to Build the Future Foundation and Kewaunee Fabrications for their investment in our students’ future, and to Gerarden Fabrication & Design for providing a top-quality product and supporting local education. Together, they’re helping us prepare the next generation of welders, fabricators, and makers—students who are building not just projects, but bright futures.
