He's in elementary school, LOL. The kid is bright though. We have a subscription to this monthly service that sends him engineering projects for kids. We bought him a soldering iron and I've been helping him start up his own soldering station. Going to be getting him a temperature controlled unit soon.
When he listens to an adult talk about electrical, wiring, engineering .... he listens and comprehends and asks very intelligent answer about what he has just learned.
I have no idea where he gets it because his mom and I are dummies. He showed an interest at an early age and I have always fostered it.
