from my shop at school. thought maybe a couple people might find it interesting. i can't believe i get to do this shit on a daily basis at school, it's fun as hell. these are from a lab i've been doing the last couple days, almost done.

don't know what to say man. i graduated high school in 95, this is my first time being in school since then and i love it. i worked my ass off to make it happen, but it'll be worth it.

JawnDiablo - 11-15-2007 at 05:18 PM

awesome.
anyone who ive known who got into that line of work ahs done well once they got in a job.
actually im thinking about trying to take some classes next year. ill have to see if i can handle it. been outa school since 92 and am way out of it.

it's definitely a major adjustment after so long, especially juggling work and school. thing is i actually wanna be there, so i'm doing better than all the young kids. a buncha years in the real world with no education gave me all the motivation i need. you should try going back man, it's a big leap but once you get rolling it's all good.

Wow... congrats on going back to school after all that time. I graduated in 92 and I dont think I could deal with going back. Keep up the good work!!

hahaha. you guys are hilarious :smilegrin:

it's just some basic residential setups like you'd have in your house:

a receptacle for the range
a receptacle for the dryer
chime with a front and back doorbell
two lights controlled by separate switches
two lights in series controlled by 3 way switches
one regular receptacle
one split switched receptacle(one half controlled by a switch)
a high voltage thermostat
an electric baseboard heater

good for you Brian. Nice to be doing something that you love. If you wanna practice I need my sheds power hooked up to my main box...pretty much running wires but I don't want to fuck with it at all.
