Got some cleaning to do

[T4halo]

My Grandpa’s old box is full of -V- Craftsman sockets and wrenches. No oilers on the 3/8 & 1/2” ratchets. Must be from the mid 70’s? These havent been used in probably 35 years. Not Snap On quality but still pretty cool. I dig the knurled Metric sockets.

Big win! Not just because of the tools, but who the previous owner is.

Very cool inheriting a set like that. It's way more valuable and nice to have. It will mean a lot every time you walk into the shop, when you look at it, when opening a drawer and using a tool.

I'm digging the old curved handle adjustable wrench.

PS> Only three pics? Where the rest of the drawers

No, it’s the 9mm. I found it laying in the drawer. Set complete.

Precious set of tools.

Nice. What’s in the little proto box?

 

[930dreamer]

Very nice, I think I better add some verbiage to my will that the shop and contents all remain and updates continue or the money stops flowing.

Nice. What’s in the little proto box?

SAE hex key sockets. Really good shape. I’d post a picture but I’m working in San Diego.

How lucky to inherit your granfather's tools! Enjoy them!

Very nice inheritance from your Grandpops!

There is something magical about having your grandfather's tools, especially if you ever used them with him.
I have a ShopSmith that used to belong to my wife's father. I'm merely the caretaker of it until my son is old enough to use it and have a place for it. I sure hope he wants it.
