Great project for you and your son. I'm pretty sure early life positive experiences like that build the kind of passion for hobbies, interests, and passions that enrich our adult lives. Hard to beat.

Thanks for the hello over on my post (sk14 and fs 14 build in NC). Life and work have got me way behind and really haven't put much time in and have to be gone again tomorrow day but I am putting some work in tomorrow night.

Great job by your son and nice to see families sill working on projects together. I'm enjoying following your progress.

Nice Build. I was running out of momentum on my sk14 build in the face of putting the doublers around the sides. Your post was inspirational and now I am back on track. Thanks.
