Borntoolate Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Any Ideas for a Daughter present who is having the first grandchild? Gotta be gender neutral at this point since we don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSW Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Duct tape? :lol: I gave some to my old boss as a gag gift when he and his wife had their 1st child ( along with a rubber squeaky duck). He later commented on how useful duct tape was for attaching those disposable diapers even though we gave it to him as a joke. If you are looking for a metal working project, maybe some sort of mobile for above the crib made from hammered copper and wrought iron.

Steve Sells Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 make her/him a hammer to get an early start as a smith. All kids love to bash things :) the Mobile is a great idea too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curly Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 My daughter loves this set I made her. Constant tapping away at the moment Or, how about 12 little forged picture frames, or 12 openinings in one large picture frame. Then a photo of the little'un can be added each month until they reach 1. Amazing how quick they grow so always nice to have a set of photos throughout that first year.

Borntoolate Posted March 22, 2014 Author Share Posted March 22, 2014 Curly. You need a hardy hole. Then you can provide additional tools to work with the play dough on that anvil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As she grows up I'll have to add to it :) I already need to re-grind the face of the anvil due to bad hammer technique... Will have to also make up some wooden tongs as well!

JimsShip Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 The Florida Clinker Breaker archives has a nice rr spike teething ring! They even have a nice quenching idea for it! Congrats on the new Grandbaby by the way! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
