Ethan's july contest entry

[FAL'ER]

I did the work with my son jack (3 years old), the thread got locked about 3 hours earlier than expected so that be the reason for this thread.
Ethan's July Challenge

Camp stool or seat. I asked my youngest to help me because he's the one of my 3 boys who always wants to see and hold my knives, guns and tools. Since he's only 3 years I really did all the work myself and used it as a knife safety lesson for him. I told him it was for a contest but he doesn't understand.

Large camp seat, For papa.

I've only seen him close it early once before and even then I think he re opened it. Hope it's not a big deal, I put quite a few hours into this. Surprised me cause I was selecting my pics to put them in the contest and "Locked".
