Greetings from North Texas
« on: May 11, 2011, 11:00:49 AM »
Glad to see tool talk is back in business!   I live in Denton Tx, and have been following this site on a regular basis for several years.   I am 55, and love to collect old mechanic-type tools while hitting the flea markets, garage sales, etc.    Being addicted to this for a long time, but it definitly has become an obsession for the last few.   I especially like the old quality wrenches and sockets of the 30s-50s.  Brands like Bluepoint/Snapon, Blackhawk, Hinsdale, and Herbrand interest me, as well as anything unusual or pecular.   As an automotive, truck, and aircraft mechanic for my entire career I have been blessed to put many a tool to hard use, and always enjoy thinking of those who may have used some of my old tools before me. 

Thank you Papaw for keeping this site going!

Welcome back.

And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
