The Chopper Shop is a fully equipped welding and metal fabrication studio. The shop has a welding room multiple with oxy-acetylene rigs and a ventilation system. Our work room holds a wealth of metal working tools, and is lined with work benches for machining and sheet metal fabrication.

In Chopper Club , students learn to design and build their own high quality chopper and low-rider bicycles. Students progress from learning the fundamentals of welding and metal fabrication to building custom bikes using complex techniques needed to build show quality bikes. After mastering the skills involved in bike building and design, students are allowed to create projects on commission. Students at this level work with clients to create proposals, contracts, and budgets while continuing to improve their technical and creative skills. These advanced students are mentors for beginning participants and establish a youth driven environment for the class.
