I believe in apprenticeships and cadet ships. I won a Cadetship and got an engineering degree after six years of part-time study in evening classes. The people who did it that way did better in their subsequent careers than the full time students. They graduated with six years of hands on experience in the workplace.

When does a spanner become a wrench? When it goes to the USA?

I hate those hand tightened chucks. When they slip they score the drill, then you have to grind off the burr. Then it may not drill true.
