Hey Lanse... don't let the math scare ya off... I flunked out of math in junior high... been machining for 15 years now and love it! every day is a new challenge... even when running the CNC (production) machines. I used to think they (CNC machines) would be boring, but now am into programming and getting more involved every day. What a trip!!! In our shop, we're doing things I'm not sure I would've believed possible even a few years ago. And, what some of the other guys said about the working environment is true... we have a nice clean shop to work in! I used to teach a night machining class at our local community college and a lot of my students were actually welding majors, but were taking my class as an elective. We would often get into the big discussion, which was better, being a welder or a machinist. I would tell them my story about being in the shop one day when it was 30 below zero with a 25 mph wind blowing... and kept thinking I heard something outside in the distance. Finally, the third time I looked out, I realized what I was hearing was the sound of a portable welder off in the distance. I immediately closed the door and turned up the heat! LOL! Regardless which you choose, work hard and stay focused... you'll get there!!! ...D
