Good on ya Mike!
I never had that sort of mentoring; one of my Grand-dads died many years before I was born, and the other died soon after I was born, so I never knew them.
And my Dad's toolbox contained a screwdriver, hand-saw, hammer, and an eight-inch crescent spanner.
It was he who taught me "Turn to the right, screw me tight," 'cos he had to say it to himself whenever he picked the crescent up.
Your grandson's going to learn heaps of practical things that will stay with him all his life...and that's a HUGE legacy you're leaving him.
Something no money could ever buy.
Will you be my Grand-dad?
Please?
