From the National Hardware Show: teaching junior DIYers
May 5, 2009
Build a young carpenter’s confidence by starting him or her off on basic building projects. Red Toolbox’s kits come with real hand and power tools, scaled down with their little hands in mind. Start by teaching 8 year olds how to assemble a classic wood toolbox or treasure chest where they’ll learn gluing, hammering, and filing. As their confidence grows, step up to level two and start using drills and cutting with a handsaw—on available kit is a working air hockey table, and then to level three. Choose from tools like a 7.2 volt NiCd drill, mini hammer, saw, C clamps, tool belts and an adjustable work bench. Tools range from $3-$43, with projects from $10-$50.
