    Man to bad I'm looking to take a class for welding as well but Boston would be a lil far for me. Is yours like a weekend deal or multiple classes over a period time?

    There are a few community college / continuing education classes that are 8 week courses that are 8-14 sessions and cost around $500. I found an artists coop that offers 3 hour intro to mig classes for $130.

    As much as Id like some face time with an instructor, I think running beads and welding different joint types in the garage / driveway will be a better use of my money. I can save some cash on a less intensive class and put it towards a welder and materials. The long classes would be nice, but are also going to be hard to fit between two jobs and my lady.

    @jc11taco89 Hey man what length & type of CB antenna do you have? I was thinking of going with a 3' on the hood mount but don't know if it will be long enough to get good range. Anyone else with a CB please chime in too

    There are two listed at the moment, March 18th and the 25th. I'm think I can make the 18th, I'm working this weekend so I should have the following weekend off.

    Good morning folks.

    Happy Monday and hope everyone had a great weekend.

    Mine ended on a shit note because I'm a moron and check work emails at home, even on the weekends, so late last night I checked it and read a real fucking shitty email. :frusty:

    Ya I'm running a 4' fire stick and mine is on a B.A.M.F tail gate mount. I think if you went with a 3' on the hood it would probably be around the same height as my 4'.

    The wife was in the truck, and I made a comment about it, how sick it looked... her reaction was, "you like that? that's too much", so my ideas were shot down right then and there. :frusty:

    I put my antenna in the back. My Cb below my steering wheel and ran the wire to the back. This is the mount that fit between my tailgate and the body.
