Just a fun story topic.
I had the curious though of how our Briggs and Tecumseh worked so I loved to take them apart at 9 years old or so to see and understand how they worked...
Instead of spanking I got told to put it back together and mow the lawn!!
I always love these little engines and it's great to let them pull us around on a mini bike....

When I was 5 dad and my grandfather always had old engines laying around from lawn equipment. I'd tear them apart and put them together....try to mix and match.

My grandmother used to give me old appliances to tear apart.

I was always tinkering with stuff. Always enjoyed working with my hands.
