That's Nice!

I just started one for my boy (1.5 years). Not quite on the scale you have, but I'm gonna redo my dads 60's 2 drawer Craftsman, and stock it. So when he's ready:)

I used to (before kids) restore the 70's Honda CB's.

Nice Find!

I took a pic of the box I found today (which I made usable) with some older tools I found in the garage as well. I thought it was neat.

Not sure if this falls in to the vintage line here, but I found this today picking up in my rafters. Old carpenters box maybe?

Here's mine. Still a few empty drawers:lol: The small red stack is empty and the charcoal small chest is empty. The older small silver chest is full of overflow Craftsman tools, and I have a small old K-Mart box that is full of random tools. Yes I need to go shopping.

3/4" Drive Rachet for $20. Went to the store for paint/plumbing stuff and found this. They are switching from "Do it Best" to "ACE" so all DO it Best tools are half off. I know I could have got a set off ebay for $40 more but....it was looking right at me:lol:

I have a PowrKraft version and have used this multiple times.;)

With the exception of a 3/8" extension, all of mine are broken...:dunno:

I used the mini Screwdriver and pliers all time when I worked at a music store. Great for guitars and piano actions.

I found a few neat things in my search today. The drill I believe was my Grandfathers, stored in a Park Tool box, one speed by the Mall Drill company, the other is anyone's guess. I painted to look neat. Fun Sunday.

I cleaned it up and It looks kinda neat as is now.

This is one of several I saved from eternal rot in my dads shed. Since this is my first Im starting small. I have already hit it with a wire brush go to sand next. Still undecided on color. Good way to spend a Sunday :)

Thanks guys! I thought that, but I was stuck on why you would use it on a bar? I know what I use bars on and I don't think this would hold up;). Never thought of the speed handle thing, now I know.

I found this guy in my dads stuff. Craftsman 1/2" Drive on either end..not sure what this is?

I thought about that too, she may just like it to be doing something with me or mom.

I do think the 18 year old would appreciate it more than the 15 yo. I'll have to try it and see what happens.

I was asking for a tool set by 13/14 years old. My parents got me a Craftsman 99/pc tool set and a 3 Drawer Craftsman chest ( I still have it). My brother was the same. We both had tools from 14 on. I married a Woman (amazing she is) with 3 kids, 2 boys 1 girl. the boys are 18 & 15, neither one...

I remember him aways having tools, and plus growing up, we bought him tools for every birthday/Fathers day/Christmas present. I'm sure we will find more as we clean up around the farm. Thanks as well for your condolences.
