          We estimate that building one complete mixer from start to finish will take approximately 8 to 12 hours, depending on your\/students experience level. We suggest organising 12x 1hour sessions, or 6x 2 hour sessions.<\/p>\n

          The most effective way to teach the project is to have up to 6 people per kit. This approach ensures that everyone can be actively involved throughout the build process, with tasks including:<\/p>\n

          \n
          • Locating parts<\/li>\n
          • Forming parts<\/li>\n
          • Placing parts<\/li>\n
