Yet another kid-in-shop tale


Recommended Posts

Great project.  I like it.

My 6 year old grandson just had a jump in his attetion span so that he can drill more than one hole on teh drill press and still be interested.  I asked him if he wnated to drill more holes and make a pencil holder,  Yeah!  grabbed a small chunk of 8/4 maple.  I held the combo square while he swiped the pencil along it to locate 8 holes.   Had to help a little to advance the drill bit with the deep holes but he stuck to it and then I let him paint it.  Not sure why he chose pink.  About 30 minutes.  It's starting to be fun.
