Looks like I'll have to move the rockets off the building table for a while. It's Pinewood Derby time! My 8 yr old, Philip, recieved his PWD kit monday night at our annual "Blue&Gold" Cub Scout Pack Meeting. Time to start carving....once the "project manager" decides on a design.
We've gotten pretty good at this. My 12 year old, Timothy, has moved up to Boy Scouts, but we have 5 cars that he's built over the years. (from TigerCubs thru Webelos II). Philip is now a Bear Scout...awarded his Bear rank at monday's meeting, so this will be his 3rd PWD car. The building of Philip's Positron rocket was one of his achievements to Bear rank BTW.
My father (Papa to the boys) and I put a new rubbed tung oil finish on the track over the Christmas holidays this year. So we are ready to go!
Making memories....thought I would share...
