[QUOTE="Mmac52280, post: 2534896, member: 120230"] Funny story along the same thinking. I have identical twins, while at college, had to pick an elective class. When they saw "wood carving" they signed up. First day in class, I get a call. Seems the class only had a few, old and dull chisels. I ordered them a full set of Flex Steel woodcarving chisels, packaged in a leather pouch, with leather ties. Yes, pricey, except it was for my girls so...Anyhow, I also sent Kevlar gloves, and leather finger and thumb protectors as well. One of them called the day it arrived. She saw the hand protection, thought "I don't need those".... 90 seconds later she was pulling a chisel out of her thumb. To this day, they still carve wood. To relax, make special gifts, experiment with different woods, whatever. Wish I could say the same for their college degrees.
