Hahaha.
I wish I had shop classes available to me. Something I have only seen now through classmates here at college is the FIRST robotics programs that some high schools have. That is like a shop class and more. Teams design and build robots (like with Solidworks and milling machines, then spec the motors and program the thing to work with sensors autonomously and by remote) to do various tasks.
I have been woefully underexposed to hands-on stuff.
Not that I would want to be turning wrenches or welding for a living, but I would like to become proficient enough in it to be able to make stuff that I dream up and draw in Solidworks. I am working on acquiring those skills with the FSAE team, though.
