Strangely enough, that is just what I thought. I went out to the local high
schools and looked for vo-tech schools. They have gone to teaching computer
classes instead. I asked you guys and others, and I kept hearing "Buy the
welder, practise on scrap metal, teach yourself". I live in the northwest
suburbs of Chicago, you would think there would be lots of stuff, but I have
not been able to find anything that a guy working 9 to 5 can attend. Easy
advice to give, hard advice to use.
