He had tools from I don't even know when. We had been working outside and I asked him what something was, he explained what it was and that he'd been using it for a great number of years. He had a bunch of things like that, though some in disrepair. If it works, awesome, if not, well what can you do.
Thanks Dave. We're trying to push forward methodically.
I was having a discussion of old tools with a friend just a few weeks ago. I inherited my grandfather's tools and my father's tools. Four years ago, when we moved my parents household goods to my sister's house in Erie, I went through a bunch of those tools. Some of those tools, particularly my grandfather's, I simply couldn't identify or figure out what they did. Wish I had asked him about them.
