    Looks AWESOME DEREK!!!. Another great toy coming out of your shop and what an awesome grandad you are, making this for your grandson. He will remember for ever all the cool things you've made him. Hopefully you are planting the seed in his head to become a great craftsman like you someday.

    I know that's how it is for me. My Grandpa has been gone for almost 20 years and hear his advice everytime I build something. When I was about 4 I had a tricycle I rode everywhere and he made me a trailer out of 1/8" steel plate and some old lawn mower wheels to pull behind my tricycle. It even has a tailgate with chains. It is sitting on my porch and every time I come home it reminds me of him

    Well they brought my great grandson up to collect the train today and we think it passes muster

    That is absolutely fantastic Derek, we are having our 2YO grandson around today as well. Yes they love riding on things, Josh chases our dog around all day.

    Great Stuff
