Skill Set: Getting Started with Power Tools For our Woodworking Skill Set theme, we asked MAKE contributor Len Cullum to contribute some pieces on understanding basic tools and techniques. Here, he explains power tools common in woodworking. — Gareth This week in woodworking tools, we move into the land of electricity, with impressive tools that exchange drudgery for speed, relative silence for roar, and charming shavings for clouds of dust. Power tools can ease some of the burden of woodwork but make no mistake, they still require finesse and a little practice to get the most out of them. They’re still hand tools, just far much more aggressive ones. Drill What can you say about a drill? From left to right: twist drill, brad point, auger bit First up is the standard twist drill.

20 world-class wines you should know, all $20 or less Back we go into the land of value, where the word bargain doth not speak its name. Last winter we unearthed 20 great wines, all $20 or less, that we wanted to stand behind - not as deals on the cheap, but as important bottles that just happened to be available for a Jackson. More often than not, these are made by serious, talented winemakers and estates that happen to believe in perhaps the most important tenet in wine: Quality should be available to everyone.

Once again, these are listed without vintages because you should be able to look for them perennially. Note: Alcohol levels are listed for the most recent vintage.

Les Vins de Vienne Reméage Red Wine ($14, 14%) Tastes like: $25 Tastes like: $21 St.
5 ways to use Raspberry Pi in the classroom I recently finished reading Your Starter Guide to Maker Spaces by Nick Provenzano, a Raspberry Pi Certified Educator. In the book, Nick describes a Raspberry Pi competition at the school where he teaches. Each student received a Raspberry Pi kit and was told to identify a problem, come up with a solution using the Pi, and not spend more than $75 on their project. If you're a teacher who wants to incorporate this type of learning for your students, the Raspberry Pi can be the platform that facilitates that experience, and Opensource.com has a wealth of resources to help you make it a reality in your classroom. First, select the right Raspberry Pi Wondering which Raspberry Pi is right for your classroom? 1. Once you've invested in a Raspberry Pi, you're probably wondering what you can do with it.
