Even though I don't have the knowledge to really use them, I love old tools. I had a number that were my grandfathers. After years of gathering dust and the start of some rust, I gave a Stanley brace & Bit, two planes, two finish hammers, a driving hammer, some chisels, and a Yankee screwdriver to a young friend who was in the middle of a home remodel project.
I don't know who was happier the kid who received the tools or me when he invited the "Lovely and Charming" and myself to see the finished project. He did a great job!!
