My three year old son loves to help me in the shop. His favorite tool is the drill press because he can do it all (I change the blanks, he does the rest). This is him just before bedtime tonight as we were preparing pen blanks for turning.

I will add pics of the pens later.

That is great. Good to have a helper but where is he going to put his drill press and lathe. It is fun when the kids want to help.

He was actually in his tighty whities. Had to kinda crop the pics to keep it decent.
