True - I make sure I let him see how much he helps - good to see him proud of his work! Cheers!
Thanks for reminding me of this - last time I checked this site, nearest was about 1.5 h away, new site must have been added about 15 minutes...
Ha! I'll have to get him some training - he can be the newfangled carb guy in the shop! Cheers!
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...
