When my grandfather asked for a footstool, I obliged. He’s one of those elder individuals with a he once built a school with his bare hands and then sent his kids across the ocean to come to this land and earn their fortune type of stories. Which means if he asks for a stool, show some respect. Do it right, show some joinery skills.
