Birthday Gift

My father-in-law has been tinkering around in his shop and made this for my birthday. He gave it to me today and now I need to figure out where to hang it:biggrin: guess it makes me and official pen turner now since I have a sign and all.

And, you have an answer to the "artist or craftsman" question - it's a "studio", so you're an artist! (If you were a craftsman, it would be a "shop".)

That's a real nice present. He must like you a lot to put all that time and effort into your present.

I call it a studio instead of a shop because around here everyone wants to take a motor apart in you shop. I guess he like me alright, he worked on it for a couple of months with my 12 yo daughter helping him. So it will be proudly displayed going from my garage to my studio. With the 2 of them working on it, this falls into the priceless category.

What a wonderful surprise. That is very nice and all the more special being a joint effort between two cherished family members.

Vey Nice gift, I can't wait till my liltte one is old enough to help in the shop. It reminds me of the great times I had with my Grandfather.
