... and to think he started with a simple stick of aluminum! Amazing.
hahaha, yep it did start very basic... hahaha
Thank you for the kind words and continued encouragement Rotorwash.
Can I share an old story...
Thirty odd years ago myself and my late Wife were thinking of ways to motivate our three school ages Sons. My wife had a whole raft of Qualifications and was a very cherished Nursing Sister, I was a Mech Fitter from a Shipyard but had left school without any Qualifications... All my CAD, Robotics, IT stuff had come after I left school...
So..., I wrote a small book on tuning an engine for kart racing, bought a 286 pc, learnt html and built a website... 10 days after concept I had sold my first book, on CDRom.
The book went all over the globe and my lads looked forward to the postman arriving each day with letters from across the World. ( I asked customers to include local currency in their payment) The lads had a large World map pinned up and would see which country was where as CDRom orders arrived.
This was my first foray into motivating my lads and showing them you could create something form nothing.
