I am one of those folks that is in love with human ingenuity.  I am fascinated by how things are made.  One of my loves is tools and figuring out what something was used for.  I am usually pretty good at figuring it out.  Have been taking things apart since I was a kid, just to see how they were made.

I am a car guy (MG's) and also do a lot of other things.  I am frugal, which means I always try to fix something myself.  One of my other hobbies is making props for your folks SciFy and anime conventions. 
My favorite creation.  I made a Ghost Buster Dancing Toaster.


 

Hi, and welcome to Tool Talk. With your interests you should fit right in.

Catch22,  welcome to tool talk.  where do you call home these days ?

MG's ?   in 1961 when I got out of the Army, all I had was a 1953 MG - TD  and a  250cc Allstate motorcycle that I
rode home on from Ft. Bragg, N.C. to Massachusetts that I paid $100 for 3 weeks before my duty was over.
we went on our honeymoon in the MG, then after the lil ones started coming, it was good by MG.  (WE BOTH MISS IT)

I hope that you find this site as interesting as I do.  looking forward to hear more about your interests.

Frank from Massachusetts. 

Guys here are always willing to share their knowledge.
You have questions? They have answers!
And some of them are even right!

I had an MGA in the early 70's, along with a Triumph motorcycle. Miss them both.

I tried to buy an MGB.  1978, I think.  It had the electric overdrive on the shift lever.  Ran like a scalded monkey.  But it was brown.  Couldn't make myself do it.
Got a 64 1/2 Mustang coupe in Rangoon Red instead.  Really loved it.
