Say When: Students and Faculty Build World’s Largest Pepper Grinder
Posted on Thursday, August 7th, 2014
Sixteen foot, 496 pound pepper grinder, made by students and faculty in Algonquin College’s Cabinetmaking program, holds over two million peppercorns.
The Algonquin College community will come together 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 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 a Niagara Falls 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!
Who:
Cabinetmaking students Declan Thomas, Andrew Carver, Rodrigue Dagenais, Jihad Farhat, Eric Beuman, Liam Cluff-Clyburne, James Brint, Spencer Olivastri, and Cameron Larsen
Professors John and Mike McKinlay-Key, Cabinetmaking program
Where and when:
