Grandpa Carves Curly Wood Shavings

Grandpa leans over the bench, beanie snug on his head. His round glasses sit low as he watches the chisel bite into the plank. Curly shavings spring away like tiny noodles. One hand holds the wood steady while the other guides the tool with careful push-and-twist moves.

Rolled-up sleeves show strong, wrinkled arms that know this work well. Gentle lines shape his calm, focused face. The board shows long grain stripes and little knots waiting for color. The quiet moment feels warm, with shavings sprinkled everywhere like commas on the table.

Fun Fact!

The first handheld electronic calculator was invented in 1967 and cost the equivalent of thousands of dollars today.
