My cousin and I were in the last year of board drafting my high school had. Her and a friend went to vo-tech visitation day to check the drafting course out, teacher told them to look around and where all the supplies were if they wanted to try something out. They started in on some stuff that his more advanced second-year (3-year program) students typically get into.
A couple weeks later our teacher came in and said we were loosing the last 2 weeks of our time in the metal shop to mothball it, as the class had been cancelled. Guess someone at the vo-tech didn't like getting his feet stepped on.
The wood shop teacher at that point (shared the classroom, with the shops off to different sides) started teaching board drafting for the first 6 weeks of class each year.
Sad the class was cancelled, there had a small CNC machine that was 2 years old, three top-end (for the time, they were bought around 1990) lathes, surface grinder, Bridgeport machine, 3 top-end Miller welders, 2-booth oxy-acetylene set-up, and a foundry. As far as I know it's still all sitting there unused.
