I've mentioned in a couple of posts how I was cutting for days, then dopping for days, and now each progressive step of grinding is taking days, leading to burn out. I've gotten some helpful hints for RTH about sticking with smaller batches but I believe that I've found a better solution. Child labor. I'm reworking the cabs that developed pits and defects on the 200 wheel while #1 daughter works the 600 diamond belt on the expando. That's MJ chryscolla that she's polishing by the way. Heck, if she was born in Indonesia she'd have a couple of years in at the Nike plant already, so why not?

She's a winner! By the expression on her face, you can tell she's serious about doing a good job, too. Either that, or she just shortened a fingernail! ;D
Good on ya, kiddo! Sure beats being glued to a tv or a Nintendo DS, doesn't it?

She has the same determined look on her face as you do. She is such a cutie and you can tell she wants that cab to be fantastic! Those are the best moments! I am glad you have a picture! Fran

My daughter has only cabbed once so far but I'm hoping she wants to do it again. Sharing a hobby with ones progeny is such a thrill. She is a cutie.
