Thanks all, It was satisfying. Yesterday one of his 10 yo sisters gave me a hug and thanked me for making that for him. Made this old man happy. thanks all for the nice words.
Duckster, no plans to make a pedal car yet, but he is only 14 months.....and yes the neighbors laser cuts too. He rides with me a lot on my golf cart around the property, but for now the cart is dead, it is at the golf cart hospital but could be serious.
Gr8- I have no idea what kind I am going to get. I was thinking of saving for a while and getting a Shark CNC with replaceable laser, but it is 5k and a lot of room. I also want a 3d printer, so we'll see what wins. For now I have a number of requests to build.
Splint- Is there such a thing as "foot friendly"? and...it's not my house.
Eric- the trading has worked out well. I never mentioned he is also a recently retired IT manager. I have a lot of computers and a server so he has been very helpful. He is building a Doll house from scratch for his mother. OMG what a project that is. He started in Jan and is about 50% done. He has cut individual siding and cedar shakes, working casement windows, and a 6 panel door so far.....
