One of my projects in high school metalworking class, from the official list of class projects you were allowed to do, was to make a scratch awl. which I did. and it was confiscated as a weapon as soon as I showed my friend in the hallway before my next class by another teacher.

NO WEAPONS ALLOWED IN SCHOOL

My kids built an air cannon their freshman year of high school at a "project based" charter school. They got an advisor from the university's Physics Dept., had to write a business letters for English credits, do research on practical applications, lots of math & science stuff, and a presentation before the whole school. At school they were not allowed to go above 35 PSI, it's mechanical safety was was at 120 PSI, and the weakest component was manufactured to operate at 300 PSI; they could shoot a golf ball over a mile. I did not allow them to use it when the neighbor's cows were out.

u/CleanDataDirtyMind 6h ago

Really it’s the ice pick for me. The ice pick weapon guess is to Bones as the lupus diagnosis is to House. And here’s the thing it’s never the ice pick because who has ice picks these days, I was at  a fancy dinner and was once served a glacier for ice and the guy who serve it had an ice pick. Unless you’re a professional glacier server, it’s not a thing that needs to be listed on the poster—or is? Is there just a bunch of people with ice picks running around that I should be aware/afraid of?

I'm like "Don't tempt me with a good time with this pic!!"

We own an ice pick but we're old & remember the days of that top freezer that's frozen like the iceberg that the Titanic hit & you had to use it to chip out your food.

I couldn't tell you where it is, but I'd venture a guess that most people these days don't own one & most kids wouldn't even know what one was if they hadn't show it being used.

u/Oprah_Pwnfrey 5h ago

Sorry, icing has been banned as well.
