Cowman, what you are describing is an Ag Mechanic, not an Engineer - BIG difference. Engineer = design it, Mechanic = work on it.

And I do agree with Harley in that an Engineer should work with what he designs. That's why my brother, a former John Deere Design Engineer, was encouraged to take demo's home on the weekends and work with them, to check on any improvements or bugs before they got to the consumer.

Ben, you need to really check into what you want to do. If you like "working on stuff" and "fixing stuff" then you are in the realm of Mechanic. If you like to create something from nothing (dream it in your head, then create it) then you are in the realm of Engineering. Know the difference.
