I made this mainly the summer after my junior year in high school. I kinda consider it one of my very first "real" projects I've done.

We got handouts of every machine we had in the shop and had to take a test on the parts and what they did, so from those handouts I made this site hoping it would make it easier for people to study.

This is very very nice. If it doesn't hit the front page, you should consider resubmitting as a "Show HN", which typically gets more votes. This is great work, and kudos to you...both for making a polished, professional website and for doing so in the service of education.

Hey, thanks! That means a lot and it's cool to know other people like it

[epberry]

Really well done! I actually worked in a shop similar to this (we were more focused on CNC machines but we had all the fab equipment too) during my freshmen year in college. Not only do I think the site is nice in general but it would have actually been useful to have a place people could quickly look on their phones to see which buttons to press and which levers to pull to operate the machines.

Yeah I thought it was a neat idea, but unfortunately I'm pretty sure not many people in my class used it

I still think that the teacher should have paid for the site. Or at the very least started using it (which, as far as I'm aware, he still doesn't even tell students it exists).

Unfortunatly most people don't understand the level of effort it takes to make this look so nice and have great functionality.

Well done janka, it's really a great site

How long ago did you make this? The design style is fairly current (in my opinion), you may have designing on the cutting edge.

Great work, you should develop this into a Clever app.

[janka102]

I started summer of 2013 and was using Bootstrap 2.3. And I've never seen Clever before, do schools have to sign up to it or how does it work?

[giarc]

So maybe not so cutting edge, but that's ok.

Yes, schools have to sign up to Clever. I'm sure many people develop math, science and english applications, but probably very few develop wood shop applications.

I agree with danso, this is really good work, and it's really cool too.

Thanks! Glad you like it
