Decided to snap some pictures of the shop of the college I attend. It is located in Marietta, OH. College size is about 2500 students, but only around 125 auto/diesel students.


Pictures of the Auto shop. 3 lifts and 8 bays.

Is that a HF / US General 40" tool box back there? Surprising that it's been sent to detention in the engine building room, what with the SK and S/O tool rooms and all!

I have one just like it, btw!

Super nice shop. How are the instructors? I would love to be able to have gone to school in an environment like that. Of course, that woulda been a long time ago.....

One of those Lincoln kids might ask how many beers you can fit in an EGR cooler...

Not a HF box. I think it says ITB on it. It is full of ISX and series 60 tools. The instructors are great. Classes with 12 students really improves the learning quality and we can all get our hands dirty.

Hey I've been in there before, :rocker:thought about teaching there for a while a few years back. Used to live in Marietta, well actually grew up down east of Caldwell.

They used to have a great school there and the teachers were all pretty good. haven't been there for a while though
Good luck, listen good and ask lots of questions. Always hated the kids who stood in the back kicking rocks or sneaking off to walk the trails in behind there.

Looks like an awesome place. Sure wouldnt mind getting up to go there instead of a typical classroom.
