Popular Post Blaughn Posted October 16, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Had 3 of the grandkids for the weekend. The thirteen year old, Bodhi, selected Steve Good's Door Sill Sleeping Dog, the ten-year old, Harper, chose Rocking Kitties, and the seven year old, Maddox, did the heart out of the practice sheet. What a great way to bridge the years with smiles and more smiles. Dan, heppnerguy, Lucky2 and 17 others 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 That is totally awesome! Had my eleven old with us this weekend. We so rarely get to see him that the first few hours is spent just getting to know each other again... Did not do shop work this time. It was so nice outside we wanted to enjoy it while it lasted. So we shot the pellet rifle at spent spray paint cans and salvaged the marbles that were inside. We had a good time.

FrankEV Posted October 17, 2022 Report Share Posted October 17, 2022 Great job Grandpa. It is great to see your young ones with something they actually made in their hands rather than an electronic device.

Lucky2 Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 (edited) That's awesome, each of them did a fantastic job, how much practice did they have with the saw beforehand? That's how I got started in woodworking over sixty years ago, I worked with Grand dad over fifty years ago. He used to build cedar strip canoes, and he needed someone short to work on the underneath the canoes. They were up on sawhorses, and me only being 12 at the time was just the right height Len Edited October 22, 2022 by Lucky2 heppnerguy and Blaughn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were up on sawhorses, and me only being 12 at the time was just the right height Len I let each of them start with a practice pattern and then set up for their chosen project. The two older ones had used the saw previously and had a rudimentary understanding of the process. This was the first attempt for the 7 year-old and I needed to do a little clean-up after he had done the cutting. Lucky2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
