my daughter requests gunsmith help!
Hoping to get some help from the gunsmiths on PPOT. I know there are several threads that I have followed with admiration, so hoping I can call on the "brain trust" for some assistance.
My daughter is in third grade and has selected a project on gunsmiths. Good for her that she has an interest in spoons (a good father/daughter activity that we enjoy), but a touchy subject in public schools.
She has to give a presentation to the class on gunsmiths (but obviously can't bring supporting subject material!), so she has come up with some questions that we are hoping one of the resident gunsmiths can help answer:
1. She needs to dress up as a gunsmith. I'm guessing a work apron and safety glasses, but what else would a gunsmith typically wear while working?
2. What tools are most used for gunsmithing? Anything that I may have in my shop that she could take as a prop?
2. As mentioned above, she needs to give a speech to the class on gunsmiths and gunsmithing. Beyond repairing guns, any suggestions on material to include? What training and/or licensing is available/required?
3. She also needs to make a poster on gunsmiths, any creative ideas?
I'll try to post her (written) speech after she has it completed... maybe even some pictures of her "costume" if we can come up with something good.
Thanks for any help, and I know she will appreciate it as well!
