I am working on a father son project with my two sons. They do not use forums. They prefer YouTube and searching for online videos on How Tos if they can find them. I have found that if I can find a video showing me the steps and comparing it to what is in fount of me it is helpful also. We do go to shows etc together but I do not see them ever getting involved with a forum like this, just not the way their generation communicates. My father's generation did not use forums.
