I too was taken to my dads workshop at a young age and encouraged to play and make stuff and he made it fun. He taught me everything I know about woodcarving (I’m a carver of bespoke frames) and I miss him dearly.

So enjoy your assistant and don’t make him sweep up too much ;o)

My father is a handy guy. Like your dad, he tried to interest me in his field, auto repair; and like you, I ran away from it to play video games. Over the years Dad has given me most of my tools, also. I call him up every now and then for help with car trouble.
