HammoGlow

We were delighted to host Krause Elementary School to showcase the construction of Ariana's idea for HammoGlow! Ariana's parents also joined us for the field trip.

We showed various areas of our operations, from engineering design in CAD (Computer Aided Design), machining, waterjet (which cuts sheet metal into parts using a very high-pressure stream of water), fabrication, paint and more. 

The students were given an overview of TARUS and given gift bags as a thank you for their visit. We hope the students gained a better understanding of how a project like HammoGlow is created from an idea, designed, manufactured, and assembled. Thank you for coming!

TARUS is in the first stage of creating Ariana's HammoGlow idea! We are welding a bracket and machining a foot pad. More to come!

TARUS met with Ariana and her teacher for her idea of Hammoglow, a swing-powered generator that can light up lights or charge a phone when swinging.  

We discussed her initial idea, what inspired her to come up with the idea, and our plans to make the product. She told us the colors she wanted, the specifics of the swing, how it would work and its design and features.

Stay tuned for the next phase where TARUS and Ariana work on the construction of this exciting idea!
