And so it goes. Edward learns the craft.

This is a photograph of the tool board in my father's workshop.

CIMG3602

Most of the tools here are more than 50 years old, and few are less than 30 years old.  I was taught that if you look after things they'll last.  Dad's workshop proves it.

The skills I have in making, repairing and constructing were learnt at my father's elbow.

And now Edward gets his first lesson on sawing wood from his Grandpa.CIMG3606

my dad has a Workshop just the same!!!!
lovely to see that others also were taught to "look after things"
even if we do start stressing at the same time about the "clutter"
