Wood-working grandpa gains internet fame with his carpentry

The child's grandfather, Li Shishui, 70, has been a carpenter for more than 50 years. Two years ago, he retired and returned to his hometown because of his advanced years. Together with his wife, Li takes care of his grandson Dandan for his son and daughter-in-law who both work in a garment-making factory in the city.

In his spare time, he picked up his old craftsmanship and used the scrap wood from his old house to make a "mantis cart" tenon by tenon. He also made pure wooden toys such as robots and birds to make his grandson happy.

Dandan is blessed with a carpenter grandfather who not only made the "mantis cart" with long legs, but also a simple version of a wooden "Iron Man".

These wooden toys, full of childlike fun, paternal love and ingenious design, not only captured the heart of his grandson, but also impressed his son and daughter-in-law who had been working away from home for many years.

Netizens also expressed their envy after watching their online videos. In the comment section of these online videos, some netizens said: "I want a grandpa like him too.""Does grandpa want a granddaughter?""The child has a grandfather who loves him so much since he was a child, and his childhood must have been very happy."

In addition, they commented that although their grandfather is not a carpenter, but when they were young, their grandfather also made some gadgets to make them happy. These videos have brought back their fond memories.
