Bill
I am a volunteer at a retirement village. It is a sort of a men's shed, but not open to the public. We have three regulars who come for two hours twice a week, they make mostly toys which are sold at the yearly fete. I asked Bill if he would mind me sharing his work with the forum, he was happy for that. In his working life he was a fitter on a coastal steamer. Now he uses a second hand scoll saw for two hours solid, never looks up.
He turned 95 last month.....
