Pat, Just a pair of standard Blade Runners. I do find a full class to be slightly overwhelming at times, but there are those students in class that can be relied upon to provide the necessary assist when the instructor is working with a student up against a block as opposed to one who merely needs the gentle nudge to get back on track. I am a very hyperactive individual and can adjust to the needs of those students that I detect need additional explaination or example to understand a concept. Even students without a drafting background get up to speed within the first three weeks. This work is so tactile that the concepts are easier to teach than attempting to teach someone a new language, which is exactly the analogy that I use when attempting to ease the jitters of having to deal with a new interface. Drafting on a CAD station really is working in a virtual world to some students. Dennis
