Last night my grandmother was at my house. My dad was dropping off my mother from NY and grandma rode along so that dad would have someone with him for the drive home. This was the first time in a couple years she had been to my house. As I was showing her some of the things I had made on the lathe recently she said, "Wow you are really into this woodworking thing. Those are beautifull" and then came the best, she said "Your grandfather would have been very proud of you."
Well for me that was fantastic. Grandpa helped me make my first "nice" woodworking project. It was a gift for a girl in jr. high. He taught me about the difference between a sabre saw and a jig saw. Bought me my first drill, my first coping saw, and refinished an old mechanics toolbox for me. Yep, that was about one of the best compliments ever.
