Barb, 

    I've been thinking the same thing myself as I read this thread -
    it's great for kids to be exposed to and inspired by what goes on in
    a parent's workshop.  I attribute a lot of my interest in making
    things by hand, as well as an inordinate fondness for tools, to my
    stepfather, who taught woodworking and printmaking to middle and
    high school students. Our basement was chock full of tools and
    machines, of which I grew very fond. 

    Of course, you've always got to be prepared for a young enthusiast's
    tendency to experiment - like when I used my stepdad's bench grinder
    to carve bone and stank up the house for days to follow... 

Best to all,

Jessee Smith
