Field Trip Zahner

Zahner is a local Kansas City design shop that focuses on creating signs, signage, and artwork for buildings in the Kansas City area and around the world.
Materials they often used were steel,  aluminum, various woods, plastics, and even electrical components.

They use the rather obvious tool sets such as CNC Machine, band saw, metal press, paint gun, sand blaster, and my favorite, the water cutter.

Over all, this is probably the worst tour we've been on. Our tour guide sped through it, talking rater quietly, and wasn't the most informed. It was extremely secretive and closed off with a "guard" following us around, making sure we stayed on track and didn't take pictures. My favorite moment was probably seeing the huge room at the back of the shop where they created the larger pieces. It lead to an Aha moment as well, with me actually knowing that they really do make large pieces indoors.
