Got a package from Maurice Metzger today!

[Tom Jones III]

A couple days ago I got a PM from Maurice Metzger, it seems he saw a couple posts where I was asking questions about woodworking with the neighborhood kids. Maurice had two extra hand saws that he wanted to send for the kids to use. Well yesterday as soon as I got home from work these three girls rang my doorbell and told me that I had a package on my front door step. Not only did Maurice send two nice hand saws but he also sent a nice Stanley block plane! The saws are perfect for the kids, the handles are great and they are much better than the cheap borg hand saw that I was making them use.

The girls in the picture are Victoria, Paige and Emily. With these three being so excited about Maurice's gift I had to make a new shop rule, no screaming! Thanks Maurice.

Very kewel!!! There are so many 'Creekers who take the definition of "community" seriously. Thanks for posting yet another example. 'Can't wait to see what the girls make using those "new tools", too!

[Kyle Kraft]

How thoughtful!!!! I agree, it's too bad that good kid sized tools are so hard to find.

That picture should make anyone smile. It's a shame that we can't maintain the enthusiasm of a child.

Tom, that picture DEFINITELY made it worthwhile! As I said in my PM, I'm glad to know they will be put to good use.

Tom, after a very rough day that picture really made the world look better. Maurice, thank you for helping these girls. Looked like Christmas in your shop Tom.
