The PRT staff insisted he was exceptional with antigrav and guns, had it even marked in his file, but he knew it wasn’t so true.  He finished his guns because they were simple, in their own way.

I see. They don’t take too long to make, so he stays on task long enough to do it?

It was easy enough to take three half-finished gun projects and mash them together.  Create something with multiple settings, even.

Take three half-finished gun projects, mash them together, and get 1.5 guns in one.

As far as he was aware, he was the only Tinker in the PRT’s records that didn’t have a defined specialty, gimmick or trick.

Huh. Maybe that means he hasn’t found his thing yet, and would turn out to be even better at tinkering once he did so.

He was increasingly worried that his special talent as a tinker was being able to occasionally make something despite his learning disability.  Which would suck, if it were true.

Ouch, yeah.
