Congrats on the cert--long time but worth it--as to the welding and machining, check on the local VoTechs and see if you can't find something. And don't forget, these days they say that a C-card is a license to learn. Vance

> Hey everyone, just got my C-Card.  Woohoo!  It was my third time through the course at age 32.  I took it the first time when I was 12, things were way different back then.  We spent much more time learning.  Started with extensive free diving skills training. Ended with CPR.  BCDs seemed like new equipment back then.  My mother wouldn't let me go on the check out dive though.  Second time I was probably 25 but I didn't get around to the check out dive.
