Did good enough! Welcome to nostr!

As others have said following hashtags and using them is the trick!

Cheers!

I would rank horticulture and shop class on the same pedestal.

Actually, I have never heard of that class in school. Great idea!

We had the same in my high school. I think the Vocational/High School combo is awesome! Even for people that may want to go to college.

It helps to a few skills in your back pocket!

Knowing what I know now and if I wasn't so introverted back in the day... I would have done it. 😁

Shop class needs to be brought back to every school district that cut it out of their curriculum.

It is as vital as mathematics or biology classes.

Good for this district to bring it back!

👇 Let me know in the comments below if your local school district has shop class!

Drilling holes in metal is one of the basic skills you need in the shop or around the house.

It’s easy if you know a few tips and techniques.

Find out what they are in the latest upload from “Fabricator’s Field Guide”.

Repeating the same measurement over and over is a waste of time.

Whenever you have repetitive measurements, make yourself a gauge block.

This trick works from construction, machining to woodworking.

When putting up the siding on my new shop. I was spacing boards at 4 inches apart. I made a gauge block cut at 4 inches wide to automatically space them apart.

All without using my tape measure!

Any time you make the same measurement over ten times, it saves time to make a gauge block.
