Every year, in cooperation with Pierce County Parks & Recreation, Clover Park Technical College develops a lighted sculpture for the annual Fantasy Lights at Spanaway Park display. This year Clover Park Technical College students developed a Model-T Ford sculpture. Mechanical Engineering Design student Mike Myers created the original design, students in the Welding Technology Program fabricated the sculpture and it's supporting structure, and other students in the Automotive Program painted the completed structure.

Mike used AutoCAD to create the design on the right from a photo of an actual Model-T Ford. He plotted the design full size for use as a template. Using rebar and metal tubing, the Welding Technology students fabricated the Model-T sculpture, laying their pieces out on the plotted design.

Following fabrication, the Automotive Program painted the sculpture prior to delivery. Fantasy Lights features the Model-T sculpture as one of its brand new displays for 2008.
