We had plenty of obsolete farm stuff to mess with.
There were many mechanical engineering experiments observed at the farm.
Dad always wishes that he didn’t show me how to run an acetylene torch.
But the most angry he got was when I made an giant slingshot out of strips from a brand new rear tractor tire innertube. This thing was right out of a road runner cartoon. I was just about ready to hook up the H and start pulling back. Then Dad saw what was going on. I had some big plans for flying cats when I was younger.
