8.           Painting Shop : In this shop, students studying / practicing different types of paints like powder coating paint and spray painting with their uses, Preparation of surface before painting such as cleaning, sanding, applying putty, filling procedure and application of primer coat and painting steel item.

9.            Pattern Making Shop : In this shop, students practice the preparation of solid/single piece pattern, two pieces / split patterns, pattern on wooden lathe, self cored pattern and a core box.

10.        Plumbing Shop: In P lumbing shop,  students study about various types of threads (internal and external)-single start, multi-start, left hand and right hand threads, various types of drills, taps and dies, Selection of dies for threading, selection of drills, taps & reamers for tapping operations and use of plumbing tools like pipe wrench , plumber vice & materials like Putty, thread, duct (Teflon) tape, epoxy resin, araldite, m-seal etc.

11.        Sheet Metal Shop: The sheet metal implies metal and alloys in sheets rolled to thickness ranging from 10 S.W.G. and thinner. Sheet and Fop late metal work has its own importance in manufacturing industry and it plays an essential role in various aspects of our day to day needs. The indispensable engineering articles made of sheet metal find their application in agriculture, building construction, house hold, offices, laboratories and shop equipment, heating and air conditioning, transportation, decorative work, toys and many other such areas. Using specialized sheet metal tools the various concepts from development of surface to actual fabrication are practiced. The various operations performed during sheet metal jobs are cutting, rolling, bending, and shaping. Different jobs are seam joint, lap joint, cylinder fabrication, tray fabrication, riveting and soldering applications.

12.        Smithy Shop : Forging is the processes of shaping steel to desired form by heating them to forging temperatures (plastic condition) and by the application of hammer blows. This is one of the oldest manufacturing processes. The working of small objects heated in an open furnace, operated manually is known as Smithy. Technical knowhow is imparted on Blowers, Open Hearth Furnace, Anvil Blocks, and Swage Blocks. The various black smith operations performed in the shop are Fullering.
