Personally I had a really rough relationship with my dad when I was young. I grew up having to work in his cabinet shop. In 7th grade I was working 10+ hour days on the weekends. His friends always told me how much I would appreciate the skills I was learning when I grew up. Bullpuckey...I just felt oppressed.
Now my relationship with my folks is great and, it turns out that his friends were right. I can build anything I want (see pictures). I owe those folks so much...
They are in their 70's now but both mom and dad are going fishing with me in Baja next month.
