Hurray for James!!! Grandson number one just got a job he's been wanting ever since he started taking classes in toolmaking. He really has a talent for taking a piece of metal - big or small - and making it into something... and he really enjoys doing it. The latest creation he's working on is a model (like you might see in a museum) of a dinosaur. He drew up a detailed plan, cut the various bone parts out of heavy gauge aluminum and began assembling them. Another current project? Making a cable release bracket for grampa's camera. Talent? this young man's got it! Fringe benefit of getting this new job? He has the opportunity to serve apprenticeship at the company while they pay his way through college. Talk about a win-win situation. Congratulations James!
