Teaching Toolmanship… How do we do it?

Pictures and videos tell some of the story, but nothing beats stopping by to see for yourself.

Visit Bendix Academy’s Spring 2025 Open House to find out how we are teaching Toolmanship to youth as part of career choices in the skilled trades or engineering, or who just want to improve their mechanical self-sufficiency.

Drop in to see our workshop and meet our folks.

Share enthusiasm with our Founder, Todd Trainor, who will tell you more about Bendix Academy’s mission and vision, as well as some of our students, families, mentors, and other volunteers, who will show you the projects they work on and why this is a valuable part of their lives.

You will be amazed!
