    I e-mailed the instructor but he has not e-mailed me back. I didn't
    specifically ask about what gauges he's using since I kind of figured
    at $25 an ounce, he's apparently planning to supplement his teaching
    fee with a tidy profit off the materials. I don't think he'd be
    pleased to know I'm planning on bringing my own. 

    Not to be unfair or anything, but I'm REALLY poor and (especially
    having dropped an unecessary $150 or so earlier this year due to not
    realizing the supplier was charging by line item instead of total
    quantity ordered so I WASN'T getting the quantity discount) I really
    can't afford to pay any more for materials than I absolutely have to.

    I'm currently looking at no more than 8 hours a week during the next
    semester. I really need another job! Sheesh!
