I have to brag just a little.

Cliff,

My grandson, aged 14, who lives with us, has recently presented me with a 2MT release taper, that he made during a work experience program. He is just starting his career schooling in engineering, and hopes to go into Bentley Motors on an apprenticeship in a couple of years time, and is gearing his remaining time at school to get the qualifications he requires.

He will be joining me a little later this year in my workshop, to give him the basics in machining. He should just about get it all done by the time he starts his apprenticeship, if he sticks at it.

Even if he doesn't need it in that career, he will still have a good understanding in machining, which will assist him throughout his life, even if it is just how to recognise how parts are made.

The kids nowadays need as much help and encouragement they can get.

John
