Little shop kit for kids

[Rickinlexky]

This is kind of cool: wood lathe, drill press, sander and jigsaw for kids down to age 5. Maybe they’ll get interested in something other than a phone!

The information would be more useful if you could provide a link (or other identifying information) to the source where the kit could be purchased.

Interesting... Looks like somebody stole the Shopsmith out of an old Lego set...

I bet I'd have liked something like that when I was that age.

I had a Mattel Power Shop in the basement in 1964 . I whittled away while watching my Dad on the big tools . I had a ball with it and most likely it played a role in my career choice .

I have to laugh a little bit at their advertising. Both those "children" are old enough to have an actual mini lathe. But it's cute. Great option for toys.

Oh I wish it were that simple or appealing. My observation is the attention span is the thing that is lacking in the littlest generation. Screens have made them ADD.
