Looking good toad, i wish schools around here still had shop class and auto class. America is going to shiz....The government expects every kid to graduate highschool and go to college and get a degree. Not everybody is cutout for college. I think there should be trade classes in school, such as plumbing, automotive, electrician, hvac, etc.

I agree with crazy-modder... I am not cut out for college shiz ...I was lucky and had automotive , machine shop wood shop and drafting classes, even auto electrical classes they had.. they cut all that out now days... and half them jobs aren't around anymore... good to see that they have nice equipment to work with at your school toad... all the machines we had were from WW2 old as hell...
this is coming along great keep up the good work toad , also its a good thing to know even if you don't get a job in construction or Carpenter. You will have the knowledge to do stuff on your own house and not have to pay someone to do it for you :)
