I want him to find and fix up a bunch of cool old machines so I can buy them from him. LOL
If he's a fixer and you want him to catch the bug, ask for his help to fix an old machine.
My dad's been a fixer all his life, and when I showed him an old machine (a 320K2) he was instantly interested. This was a few months ago, and just last week he completely disassembled a 29K58 boot patcher. I don't think he's sewn a stitch on any machine, but he loves how they work
