Case Studies
Portable Oxy-Acetylene Apparatus
ROP students at Laton High School constructed a portable oxy-acetylene plumbed table that will be utilized to teach students in the Introduction to Agricultural Mechanics class about oxy-acetylene safety and methodology through hands-on application. The portable oxy-acetylene apparatus is a table made up of eight stations with each station offering the capability to cut or weld. Students will learn fabrication methodology including designing, measuring, cutting, welding, fastening, gas pipeline plumbing, assembly and fit-up.
