That is really satisfying. I have had 4
neighborhood kids working in my shop off and on
since they were Cub Scouts building derby cars.
Spent 12 years encouraging them to become
engineers or scientists. Now they are grown up.
One is a banker. one is pre med and the other
two are in law school. At least maybe I
instilled a little mechanical aptitude. :-)

That is really cool!

I did something like that in the late 70's -
Young man won the National Science
fair - and got a full at MIT. He is a doctor
now.

About 4 years ago a woman came to my shop
looking for someone to
machine parts for her son. He needed the parts
for a science project.
I tried to do the parts for free but she
wouldn't hear of it. So I
just charged less. She didn't know what my
shop rate was and I wasn't
about to tell her. Anyway, I saw this woman in
the store the other
day, reminded her who I was, and asked about
her son. He just got
accepted to both Caltech and MIT! He's going
to MIT. I hope I helped a
little bit. Sure is cool to see people
succeed.
