Popular Post MattF Posted December 25, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 My son wanted to make a Christmas present for mommy. She bought a key ring holder at a "junk" show that she drug me too. I did get a nice Stanley no 4 for cheap out of trip, so it wasn't all bad. Had a scrap piece of walnut and figured we could mount it to that to hang on the wall. He did a lot of the work, first time using the bandsaw. Didn't get any pictures of that, due to both of my hand being on top of his. He is 4 1/2. Adding some finish. A little paste wax. Probably not the best, but something he could no problem. We did addd 3 coats of Varathane Natural wood stain. Drilling some pilot holes. Proud of his hard work. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattF Posted December 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Thanks All!! He loves being in the shop. He can stay focused for about an hour, which I think is pretty good for a four year old, and then he moves on. He is always welcomed in there when I am in there.
