I would choose to work with my son Tyler, our time together is always way to short to take on projects. Getting a small amount of shop in I me with my grandson Andrew (8) and he likes the scroll saw.
There have been a number of members that have walked me though some projects and processes but all of you could teach me ( I am teachable) So you turners, box makers ,flat workers ,knife makers ,scrollers,and all the other craft areas that I haven't mentioned you have a standing offer to attend my shop and teach me your specialty. The coffee pot is always on.
It would have been an honor to have been able to work with Kevin, but he most likely would have gotten flustered with my all thumbs approach and most certainly would not have been in South Dakota in the winter ( you know "the white poison")
So give me a day or two notice and we will decide what to do
