ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

Does anyone else have workbench type exhbits where kids can try using real
tools, like screwdrivers, wrenches, etc? Do you have more "dangerous" tools
like saws and hammers? How do you handle them, and prevent injuries? We've
got a workbench area that needs a shot in the arm, but we're not sure how to
stock it given limited staff, and the fact that it's open all the time (not
just certain times for certain projects).
Thanks for any advice, and feel free to reply to me off-list.

discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' (I found it!) but "That's funny..." --Isaac
