  Hello all, I'm a retired Plumbing Contractor (8 years learning the trade +41 years as a Master Plumber ). Been collecting tools since day one, really hate to start a project and not have the necessary equipment on hand. A lot of the tools are special to the plumbing industry not available any more. If we ever return to the good old days of cast iron, oakum, lead, Durham fittings and galvanize threaded pipe I'm ready.
  Learning  now how to use my wood lathe that i got in 1978 and all the tools that were bought over the years to keep myself busy when I retire.  I found this site from the "What is it" blog .
  Have a great day and always work safe.

Welcome

We love pictures of antique and vintage tools
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.
