ND i have one of those Tool Machine Degrees. Been out of the trade for awhile now. If Nate is serious about going into that trade, i would have him look into the job stability of that trade. When i was working before 9/11 tons of jobs could get a job the next day if you were not happy with the one you had.After 9/11 things changed for the worst,places folded up, hard to stay employed.Got so bad 20 of us graduated i think out of 20 there maybe 7 that are still machinists to this day. Maybe the trade is better now more stable maybe not as up and down when i was in it.
Got a whole bunch of tools sitting in Kennedy tool boxes, that i'll probably never use again if Mr.Nate decides to go down that road.
PM me if you got any questions maybe i can help out.
