20 Year old's new boxes/tools.

[kwon]

Alright so my name is Kyle and this is my first post. I just got these 3 craftsman boxes filled with a ton of tools form an old man who was my neighbor who passed away over the summer.

90% Of the tools in there are from him. Ill be adding missing tools here shortly.

All Cleaned up.

Where they are in my garage.

Top shelf in the wooden top box is screw drivers.

Second one down is all the wrenches and sockets. ( I just got some socket holders form sears tonight )

Third one down is plyers and what not.

Forth one is hammers and drill bits.

Last one for this chest is just clamps and bigger stuff.

The first shelf on the big box.

Then the bottom of the big chest.

Also have to put theses somewhere.

Got a whole bunch of power tools and stuff so ill be adding them in as well tomorrow.

Welcome, nice collection of tools. I see a cool green gripped Diamond adjustable, those go for great money on ebay, not that you should sell it. A couple of Indestro screwdrivers too.

Just for shits and jiggles how much do the adjustables go for? And also how much would the indestro go for?

Thanks

Great set of tools. The best thing you can do to make him proud is use the tools

That wrench makes me think of my dad.

It was the first tool he ever gave me. That this is nostalgic for sure, probably why they're desired by many.

Got a good start on the tool collection. keep it up a soon you'll have way more than you need!! WTG. nice car too. Yours?

 

[kwon]

Nope my old mans dream car as a kid

 

[JimmyBallew]

Keep that soldering gun, the new Weller guns use set screws to hold the tip instead of nuts like yours, the new style guns often lose connection to the tip because of the set screws and stop working.

 

[kwon]

spring/strut compressor
