    ▶︎ A little story about me: I am a retired shop teacher, I spent 36 years teaching Graphic Arts, Vocational Printing Trades, Photography along with extra duties like Drivers Education, & Yearbook Advisor.
    I started teaching shop in the fall of 1974. We had seven full time shop teachers. (Industrial Education)
    Auto Shop
    Construction • Built A House
    Drafting, Mechanical & Architectural
    Graphic Arts
    Small Engines • Marine & Lawn
    Metal Shop
    Wood Shop
    In the late 90’s Industrial Education had to deal with new state guidelines called: Core Curriculum. This put a strong emphasis on the college prep program for all Michigan Students. Needless to say the students had no room in the school day for elective classes and this put Industrial Education out of business
    I also took shop classes in High School. Mr. Pasternak and Mr. Mathers were my high school shop teachers and they got me started at Central Michigan University to become a Michigan Shop Teacher.
    I would not want to be a high school student today. No shop classes.

    Hi Gary, thanks for the neat video of some cool Menards rolling stock. Menards makes and sells some really nice O scale stuff at great prices. They are great additions to your layout.
    I like your magic wand 🪄 a lot. It makes unboxing super easy and can unclog a toilet 🚽 in an emergency.😊
    Best regards from sunny Florida. Joe 🌞🌴

    Marx guy here, at 76 I remember in the 1950s the car carrier autos traveled with no hub caps and were packaged in the trunk. Do you think someone makes a mixed carrier of say sedans, pick-ups, and convertibles, which would be more realistic. sub.
