I would like to get two Dewalt cordless drills to use in Green Architecture. Currently, we have one drill that we use/share for the entire class. Having multiple drills will allow the students to complete more projects and not get frustrated when tools are being used by fellow classmates. I also would like a Husky tool chest and cabinet combo to be able to safely store all the tools we use in Green Architecture. With a tool cabinet, I would be able to wheel it out in the workspace and be able to help students get what they need to work on their projects. Currently, the tools are stored in a locked room and the students need to come to get me each time they need something (which takes me away from helping students with their projects).
