No such thing as a bad student, only bad instructors. Just saying, Tweake :D

You're a good uncle, Tweake. And you're right, too many kids today don't have adults with trade skills to foster their interest. Fair play to you!

tweake, good job ! I've been showing my grandson (age 7) about welding and the lil bugger is out doing me. He isn't afraid to get right into it. ,,, just need to find him some gloves that fit. Not enough interest being shown to the youngsters who are a bit "lost" .
