Time out chairs

Those are great. My mom just sent me a picture of one of these a few days ago. Our three year old might need one.

P.S. Go ASU!- Class of ‘02

Nice work.

My Father had an idea about “time out”, usually doing some task that took forever and required alot of hard work. Of course he always gave you the option of the belt. (laughing)

Funny stuff for kids, looks great.

Nice work. I thought about making one of these for all the dumb mistakes I make in the shop. However I would probably spend most of my time in the chair and get little done.(lol)

Oh my , I know one little Grandaughter that might spend a Lot of time in one of these. But I Love her anyway.

Heh, reminds me of the paddle my friend’s mother asked me to make in wood shop. Yes, I made a paddle so that my friend’s mother could use it to whack him. I really am a merciless woodworker. IIRC, that was in 1966. I used cedar and drilled holes in it so that it had less wind resistance for a good whack. FWIW, I NEVER did anything like that to my children. If you don’t have your kids under your control by the time they are 7, you are likely a failure as a parent. JMHO.

When I was a kid, Time Out referred to the number of minutes you were unconscious. I have a friend who related the story of the time he was 15 and smarted off to his father. He said the next thing he remembers was flying over the sofa.

Start waaaaay before that.

Great idea and fun build, cool design and colors. A must have for family with little kids.
