Interesting semi-thread. Being a high school teacher, I'm peopled-out at the
end of the day, so I treasure introspective alone time when I work on my
Healey. When more hands are beneficial, wife or kids are good helpers. When I
was restoring my BN6, my daughter was 10 years old. Her little hands were
especially helpful. - JRC

I agree. I just finished helping my wife cover the AL bow on the BJ8
project; she is much better
at that than I. She was invaluable in doing the seats, and has helped
with many other tasks, that
took more than two hands, not to mention the tolerance of all the costs.
