Generous son

[keithbyrd]

Gotta love generous kids!
My son was over a few weeks ago and we were making a pen on my Nova DVR XP which is a great lathe! Somewhere in the process he said wouldn't you like to have a smaller lathe to do this? I said sure, one of these days I will get one. Nothing else said. But last Friday this was dropped off by the shipping company!
Will get it set up this weekend!

That is pretty awesome. All my kids ever get me is crayon artwork from their preschool. I'm going to have to have a talk with them!

It's really special when a child does something for their parents, especially unexpectedly.

The first pen off that lathe should be his.

Congrats

That is the plan - he helped me pour some alumilite blanks while here also so that will be the first pen!

You son is indeed generous and thoughtful as well. What a nice gift
