Heck now at least in Katy you do not get any shop classes unless you go to the vocational school.

Skip, In the farm community I grew up in we had the "college bound" and the "Aggies".
The College Bound had classes like Farm Management, Typing, Accounting, and Business.
The "Aggies" had classes like Welding, Woodworking, Metal Casting, running a Lathe, and using a Cutting Torch.
I still remember the Business Desk I built for my older Sister and the Custom "BENCH" Rifle Stock I made for
my .220 Swift Varmint Rifle.
Course I fooled them, too, with getting a Engineering Degree and working for Ford Engineering for 39 years and Holley Carb in Emissions work before that.
At the end of the day you are what you are because of the effort you put into the endeavor.
