    Lol. His horse has to have a motor. At 10 years old that boy is hell in wheels. He has a full race breed four wheeler as well as he drives the crap outta that old 76 454 4 speed chevy you see sitting outside the door. My other son is a little more timid but at times the brains of the pack. Then when you pair them up. What one dosnt think of the other will. :pete:

    Great to have the boys helping - I grab free junk saws, etc., from the dump and my sons tears them apart while I'm working on a saw - all good learning for them! Cheers!

    Thats funny. I made a deal at mid terms with one of my boys. If he brought me a straight B Report card and got all his reading points I would buy him a saw to fix and sell.

    Great! That will be an excellent experience for him! My son's been asking to do the same - he sees what I do and thinks it fun. But, he's much more into electronics - tears apart microwaves, and on and on - than engines - I told him to focus on that if it is what he loves to do and try selling parts, transformers etc., on eBay to try and make a few bucks for other projects. I don't care what he does, as long as he likes it and works hard. Cheers!

    If he's like my boys then he dosnt realize the little things he does that are stupid to him are a huge help to us. Because of what they did last night helping me I have 3 brand new ported 7910s headed out the door tomorrow. Hopefully with some happy customers on how pretty they are. Lol
