Need advice from the forum.  I have to dispose of my carpenter/millwright father's power and hand tool collection from 50+year career and hobby.  Most of career in Illinois, but collection is in central MS for past 15 years.  Drill press, routers on stands, die kits, bits of all sizes, power tools, Starrett, old grinders, sanders and drawers of hand tools -- most about 40-50 years old.  Is there a club in MS that I can reach out to?  Want to get them to those who appreciate them as he did.  Thanks much.  Daughter 2 U S Army, COL (retired).

You might contact Mike Urness of Great Plains Trading Co.  He lives near St Louis and is in the business of managing tool auction sales.  He is honest and perhaps can advise you on the best way to dispose of the collection.  Chuck Garrett
