Instead of a desk, we bought a metal workbench with a “hutch”. A tall workshop cabinet became his closet. A tool box with several drawers was his dresser. I hung old valve covers and a creeper on his wall.
Now, he is 27. And the above mentioned items are being used in his garage for their intended purposes. Turned out to be a good investment.

Did the kid grow up to be a mechanic??
~ John A kid raised on Hotwheels, Matchbox and Tonka cannot be reasonably expected to own only one vehicle as an adult. 1949 Chevrolet 3804In the Legacy Gallery | In the Gallery Forum1973 IH 1310 Dump1963 Kaiser M38A12001 International/AmTran RE3000 "Skoolie"2014 Ford E-350 4x4 (Quigley) | | | | | Joined: Nov 2012 Posts: 64 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2012 Posts: 64 |

After a few short years, the dealership saw his potential and they sent him to one of Toyota’s schools. He quickly became a master technician. I take some of the credit…he grew up watching and then helping me fix everything from the microwave to water heater install! Now, I call him over when I get over my head!
