The socket for the rear axle seemed like a good project, because I can just provide him with an axle nut and ask him to make a socket for it. Some of the other ideas are a bit more like engineering projects with a machining component. I don't think this is an opportunity for a "production run", more like just an item or two. Whatever he makes will probably have to stay in his "portfolio" for a while for grading and showing off while looking for a job. Depending on where his career takes him, there may be some opportunities for other MG stuff in the future. I'm very proud of him and I think it will be cool having a machinist in the family.<br>><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>> -Steve T.<br>><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Zmagnette mailing list<br>><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>> Donate:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>> Archive:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/archive">http://www.team.net/archive</a><br>> Forums:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/forums">http://www.team.net/forums</a><br>> Unsubscribe/Manage:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/zmagnette/steve@betterwitnesses.com">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/zmagnette/steve@betterwitnesses.com</a><br>><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Zmagnette mailing list<br><br>Donate:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>Archive:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/archive">http://www.team.net/archive</a><br>Forums:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/forums">http://www.team.net/forums</a><br>Unsubscribe/Manage:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/zmagnette/skirby210@cox.net">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/zmagnette/skirby210@cox.net</a><br></blockquote>_______________________________________________<br>Zmagnette mailing list<br><br>Donate:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>Archive:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/archive">http://www.team.net/archive</a><br>Forums:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.team.net/forums">http://www.team.net/forums</a><br>Unsubscribe/Manage:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/zmagnette/bachldrs@comcast.net">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/zmagnette/bachldrs@comcast.net</a><br><br></div></span></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
