Several years ago, my very thoughtful wife bought me a workbench for Christmas. Adam and I used it to build our first airplane. Aaron and I have done much soldering on it. Arianna and I have used it for various projects. Like all workbenches, it was The Place for Tinkering by men of Very Little Brain.\n<\/p>\n

After some hours in the ruins of our basement, and with the help of the boys, I was able to excavate my workbench so I could get started with that project. When I was done, Aaron said “Wow.
