Bendix Academy – Inspiring Tomorrow’s Toolmen Today!
We love visitors of all ages, especially aspiring toolmen like Evan! While he’s a little young (we currently accept students aged 12 and up), he’s already looking forward to growing his knowledge about toolmanship.
We’re thrilled to announce the success of our pilot program and the exciting journey ahead as we gear up for full-time operation in 2025, beginning with the first issue of our quarterly newsletter, Toolmen Times. Stay in touch with our progress by joining our mailing list by clicking the link below. You’ll get news and info about our growing programs, and be the first to know about events and open houses!
