One Of The Things I Like About 4-Year Olds
One of the many things I like about 4-year olds: They are easily impressed!!! I had finished doing most everything I had to do at work today, and was feeling a little bored. I found a scrap of aluminum and cut it into several small sections, then got some practice welding it back together at all kinds of strange angles. I stuck the finished piece in my lunchbox and brought it home. When I got it home, I asked my youngest if he wanted to see what I made at work today. When I pulled it out, he went "ahhhhhhh!!!", like I had pulled a rabbit out of a hat or something!!!

Years ago, I welding some holes in an old rock-hoppen 16foot johnboat...what a mess I made of it, but I tried:)
Those holes kept getting bigger before I figured out how to flow the whole mess together. It didn't look anything like your nice and neat ashtray-paperweight.
I showed it to my older boy, too. He said "oh." I asked him if he was impressed, and he replied "its just a bunch of metal welded together." I told him that I wanted him to try welding some aluminum, then tell me its JUST a bunch of metal welded together!!!
Then I woke up this morning and remembered I'd forgotten to turn off the argon when I was done last night. The regulator has a leak, and the thing was empty when I got in this morning :(

priceless.

Truth,
This paperweight is very smooth all around.So it's pretty safe in that sense. But there are some holes that fingers could get stuck in. So it's not goint to be a toy fur sure.
