I took basic and digital electronics as half-year electives in HS. We didn't have a "Metal Shop", but we did have a pretty good selection of mechanical drawing and fabrication classes in place of art.
For serious trade stuff there was a county trade school folks could take as an alternative to traditional highschool. |

We had wood, metal, and auto. As long as you were doing something you passed. We converted two riding lawn mowers into go karts. One guy lost a tooth and another smashed the bumper in on a truck.

Thought about that but they are all fine. Also part of the tinkering the first time was sitting in the dark looking for light shines

I had metal and wood shop in JR high. We had auto, wood, and metal in HS, but I didn't have room to take them, or art being college prep for accounting. Sure, I'm retired now at a young age, but being an accountant sucked the life out of me for 30 years. If I had it to do over, I would do a trade.

Momhawk - Dadhawk, what are you doing out there in the dark? Dadhawk - looking for light shines. Momhawk - mumbles to herself, as she goes back into the house - crazy old fool. humfrz |

Until I looked it up tonight, the last time I remember using that term was when I was a kid. God, we could be so mean to each other I shudder thinking of it now.
