He tinkers with it a lot for minutes at a time. We’re happy because if he had been tinkering with the same object in real use such as an electrical outlet or locks we’d have to make him stop. This way he can rattle and pull and twist all he likes and we’d just be in the background smiling.

I still have a few plywood and odd bits lying around for future projects, so this won’t be the last.
