For those who are hand tool purists, you're not going to like this project.
For those who know her, I think they'd all say that she's about as feminine as a woman can get. While she was the only kid on her Jr. High Mission trip who knew how to use a power drill, spending time in the shop is not her idea of the perfect morning. Because I'm not much of a shopper, I kinda jumped at the chance to spend some high quality time with her on this project. Here are some pics of what we did.
Always good when both a labor of and an object of love are in the shop at the same time. Start 'em young.

Yes, from the look, she's critiquing Poppa's dry assembly!
I gave my daughter a full homeowner's kit when she took her apartment up at school. It did include a battery drill, but was mostly hand tools. When she married, we got her a snowblower as a wedding present. Not the wisest decision, given the guy she married, who kept trying to tell her he didn't want to play with her toys....
