Even a first grader gets it.

My son likes to vacuum my shop, and I oblige by making saw dust for him. The other day, he finishes cleaning and turns the vacuum of and says ‘Dad, I don’t get it. You buy wood to make pens, to sell pens to buy more wood, to make more pens…’ Oh, buddy. You understand far more than you know.

So simple that a first grader can figure it out.

Smart kid -- he'll remember that and it'll make EVEN more sense when he grows up and starts doing that himself. []

Chris that's hilarious - smart boy! My 7yo daughter is keeping an eye on me as I learn (struggle) with my turning. I have a feeling she'll be picking up a bowl gouge before too long..... []
