SW Saskatchewan | I didn't, family didn't believe too much in toys. The real thing, maybe. Toys-no.
But the high school science lab let our creative juices flow-all the "forbidden fruits"- Magnesium strips, metallic sodium and phosphorus and all the neat little fires you could create, a dime dipped in Mercury and of course sulfur and paraffin to stink the whole school out. Wish we had the internet back then-never could mix charcoal, sulfur and saltpetre to make black powder. The lord certainly protects those to ignorant to look out for themselves.
Years later I was able to buy a Heathkit volt meter, found I didn't have the fine muscle co-ordination for neat and orderly soldering. | |
