It goes slower when you have to stop every so often to pick up the rachet, but slow with my kids is better than fast by myself.
My Dad used to give me a hammer an some nails to work with while he did framing and repair work. That is why I can do some of the things I can. He took time to teach me.
Be patient and love the kids.

Great idea. When I was 4 my dad did a "home" restoration on a 67 Firebird. I loved that car. He still has it along with two 68 ragtops. I'm actually responsible for him owning a 67 longbed, 69 longbed, and 69 4x4 longbed (he loved my 67). I am no expert on how to do things, but I know my way around a car and a garage. I can even work on "the new stuff" as long as I have my trusty haynes manual! He also taught me how to build a house from the ground up. I wouldn't trade the time my dad and I spent in the garage together for all the hot rods in the world.
