Youngfellow, I think you get the prize for number of responses. Your post touched a nerve with me, I am very supportive of young men interested in the trades.
A friends son was very hands on but had no path to learn welding either at high school or home. 14 or 15 at the time. I taught him what I knew about welding and my son added to that. He started helping me on tractors, his Dad told me I did not have to pay him if we were learning mechanics but I always did; and I helped him start a tool collection both new and used.
Today he is a Senior in High School, works for the local tire dealer weekends and summers (I recommend to the tire dealer.), he attends a local evening class on Diesel Mechanics, and is Signed Up at the Local Tech. School to begin Deisel Mechanics and Welding, in the fall. Myself, his Dad and the local Tire Dealer, all supported him in getting into the special evening Deisel class as well as the Tech. School enrollment.
He is so busy now I rarely see him. But I am proud of my involvement. So support your local Youngfellow.
