Tool porn

On reaching middle age, our father started building things, which he attributed to a mid-life crisis. It came to pass that one of his favorite expressions was "I made it myself, with tools." Unfortunately, he never really had the right tools -- as I recall, we used a hatchet on my first Pinewood Derby car. If there had been a "special" Pinewood Derby, I would have been in it.

Point is, if Dad were alive today I would definitely get him one of these.

I am totally sending this to my four sons. I have poor dexterity and little training, but have attacked larger projects as I've gone along, and at 55, am almost mediocre.

Your father would approve. Would he have read the directions?
