Looks like a real good start. Your stamping is very good and even. Im sure they like having you around making them stuff.

First try, and you made something that worked. Good job!

Now if we could only get Union wages for doing this work...lol

Woody Guthrie Union Maid Lyrics:

There once was a union maid, she never was afraid

Of the goons and the ginks and the company finks and the

deputy sheriffs who made the raid.

She went to the union hall when a meeting it was called,

And when the Legion boys come 'round

She always stood her ground.

Oh, you can't scare me, I'm sticking to the union,

I'm sticking to the union, I'm sticking to the union.

Oh, you can't scare me, I'm sticking to the union,

I'm sticking to the union 'til the day I die.

This union maid was wise to the tricks of company spies,

She couldn't be fooled by a company stool, she'd always organize the guys.

She always got her way when she struck for better pay.

She'd show her card to the National Guard

And this is what she'd say

You gals who want to be free, just take a tip from me;

Get you a man who's a union man and join the ladies' auxiliary.

Married life ain't hard when you got a union card,

A union man has a happy life when he's got a union wife.
