Students and Faculty to unveil the World’s Largest Pepper Grinder – August 14, 2014

Posted on Friday, August 8th, 2014

Come join us for the unveiling of a sixteen foot pepper grinder, made by students and faculty in Algonquin College’s Cabinetmaking program, that holds over two million peppercorns.
The Algonquin College community is invited to celebrate the nine students and two faculty members who, on their own time, have built what will soon be certified as the World’s Largest Pepper Grinder.
Nine students in the Cabinetmaking and Furniture Technician program were given the challenge of building something large that would test their hands-on skills in new and different ways. After researching their options, and with assistance from their professors, the team decided to beat the record, held by an Etobicoke, Ontario restaurant, for the World’s Largest Pepper Grinder.

This event will include an official measuring, photographs, and a demonstration, which will be documented and sent to Guinness World Records to make it official!

Cabinetmaking students Declan Thomas, Andrew Carver, Rodrigue Dagenais, Jihad Farhat, Eric Beuman, Liam Cluff-Clyburne, James Brint, Spencer Olivastri, and Cameron Larsen
