The other weekend the kids were out of the house, and Nicole and I did some housekeeping; along the way, a project came up to build something to hold sports medals and trophies.
Using some scrap wood that Nicole had from another project and purchasing some hooks, I could put together a shelf that would hold the trophies and allow for the hanging of the medal.
While working on this and altering the scrap wood shelf, it reminded me of the times I used to tinker in my grandpa’s garage when I was younger and how doing so really allowed me to build things. At the time, I would never have thought that taking things apart to see how they worked would give me a better understanding in the future of not only making something out of nothing but repairing things such as the time the pull start on the mower broke.
