Going back when I was raising My son. LOL

Makes me think about when I was very young and something I did. We lived with my grandparents until I was maybe 5 and my parents got their first house.

Down in the basement was a big pile of random pieces of pipe, all different lengths and diameters, with elbows, tees, and couplers on them. I had seen my grandfather working on the plumbing, so I had a vague clue about assembling them.

So I proceeded to start trying to screw together as much of it as I could make fit together, until I made some big crazy looking hodgepodge of pipe, looking like something I remember seeing on a three stooges TV program.

I never heard anything about it, but I bet it probably made my grandfather smile when he saw it.
