General Info

I AM well seasoned retired union carpenter. AS a young BOY I loved nature and woodworking. If I Wasn’t OUT catching snakes. Birds. Rabbits. And squirrels I was fishing in MY Grandfather’s boat that I helped build or working in HIS wood shop. I remember HIM lifting ME UP onto the BOW of a boat and showing ME HOW to PUT in brass screws with a yankee screwdriver. HE was a lineman for PGE and taught ME electrical skills. HE always included ME in what HE was doing. HE built boats. Grandfather clocks. Furniture YOU name it. HE always HAD a JOB for ME helping and then would brag about HOW HE Couldn’t have done it without ME. HE was very proud of HIS grandfather “the town blacksmith”. HE told ME stories of the many skills HIS grandfather shared with the town HE lived in. ONE story was of a nearby mill that HAD a SIX inch diameter by thirty foot long steel shaft that snapped in half during a bitter cold winter in nebraska in the late 1800S. Several MEN with horses brought it to HIS shop and SET it UP over HIS forge SO they could help turn it while HE repaired it. When it GOT RED HOT HE split the Shaft’s broken ends and added a NEW wedge shaped piece and kept beating it AS it turned over the forge melting the three pieces together until it was round. After it was RE installed the mill owner swore it RAN smoother then when it was NEW. HE was very kind and giving and only asked payment of whatever HE knew they could give AS times were hard. When MY great great grandfather died MY grandfather said HE’D never seen SO many people in the town that came to HIS funeral. Even more than during the state fair. MY grandfather said HIS grandfather always made time to help HIM with a project. AS a young BOY HE helped HIM build a model airplane. They painted it bright RED and it hung in MY great great grandfathers shop for HIM to brag about HIS Grandson’s talents until the DAY HE died. MY grandpa HAD tears in HIS eyes when HE told ME the story. AS I DO NOW writing about it. I AM forever grateful to have been loved by such a kind and giving MAN.
