For those of you in the SF Bay Area:

I've been taking some evening classes in machining at De Anza Junior
College in Cupertino to
brush up on those things I really never learned in high school shop or
on my own. The enrollment
period for spring quarter is just beginning, and there's likely to be
plenty of space in the introductory
class. If you've at all interested in using more than a million bucks
worth of machines and tooling,
including Bridgeports, LeBlonds, Hardinge and NC equipment, the classes
at De Anza offer a great
opportunity to do so for a pretty nominal fee.

You can register via email from their web site:
http://www.deanza.fhda.edu/ as well as peruse the
course catalog.

Here's the course catalog entry for the intro class, which runs from
6:00 to 9:40 on Tuesdays next
quarter:

MFGD 70

Basic Machine Tools and Processes
2 Units

(Formerly Machining and CAM Technology 50.)

Advisory: Eligibility for English Writing 100B and Reading 91 or English
as a Second Language 4.
Four hours lecture-laboratory.

Basic measuring tools and practice, basic machine operations including
pedestal grinders,
drill presses, saws, lathes and milling machines. Bench work such as
filing, layout,
use of taps and dies. Care and maintenance of hand and machine tools and
shop safety.


Hope to see you there next quarter. This program needs and deserves our
support.

- Bart

Do you think he is still there, after more than 17 years?
