Yes. The kid has the steadiest hands I've ever seen. Also very creative. I basically show him how to use a tool then turn him loose.
The down side of that creativity is the ultra-perfectionist that comes with it. "Dammit, Tim. We ain't buildin' show cars here." "Don't prime that, the paint on the rail wheel will be gone the instant it touches the rail." "No, dammit, it doesn't need to be polished." "Tim, I need that done today, not done pretty tomorrow." The above are things I've had to say to him.

Don't call him "Dammit." Until I was seven years old, I thought my name was Dammit.
Dammit, stop that!

I've learned an expression that has helped me: finished is better than perfect.
