I know what you mean by stupid kid, I had a 1949 Indian Scout that I sold foe $100 CASH! That was BIG money in 1963. I don't think stupid is the word to use though, more like WHO THOUGHT!!

OK, I want to know how the school is going? Did you have lots of takers? Wish I could have joined in the fun. You probably would have ran my ass off, can't teach an old dog new tricks. But it would have been fun trying.

After reading this thread I feel ecstatic about my students. I would be willing to put my 10th graders up against any of the students those schools you mentioned in the original post are cranking out. I have 9th graders that know how to set up AND the do's and don'ts of oxy-actetylene.
My ag students can set up the machine and those that are still unsure will always ask me... BUT, they always ask, "This is what I'm trying to weld and I think I have the machine set where it needs to be, can you please check it for me?"
