I'm outfitting my shop and trying to do so at minimal cost. Some of you have older or seldom used tools sitting in your shop that you rarely use and may want to get rid of, and anyone that has a garage or shop, usually likes to customize it with signs or decals.
So here's my idea: I need tools, and you want signs and decals, maybe neither of us has extra money to spend on what we want, so how about we trade?
I make decals and signs for a living and can make most any decal or sign up to 4x8, altho I have made some longer banners and signs. Take a look at some of the designs I've made in my album here:

Below is a list of stuff I'm looking for. It's not conclusive, and I may be overlooking something. As I've learned on GJ so far there's always a tool I didn't know about, but once I see it, I'm thinking "man, I could use one of those". I primarily am focused on wood working, and misc d.i.y. projects but want to start doing some more of my own mechanical work. Any brand is cool with me. I'm not hard on my tools and don't do heavy duty projects, so snap-on/mac is not worth as much to me as it would be to many of you.

EDIT* this list is updated to my current needs/wishlist. Big thanks to the guys I was able to trade with so far!

If you have anything on the list or have something else you think I may be interested in, and would like to trade for something custom, let me know!
