Tools, old tools, will be collected, just for the curiosity and interest, but also a couple of boxes of them won't change your lifestyle. Not like having a yard full of old tractors and trucks. I started out gathering a few woodworking tools, so I could work without electricity around. Then had to expand on the farm wrenches and adjustable wrenches. One has to be somewhat brain dead not to see the ingenuity, and workmanship that goes into a tool. Often the older ones show this more, pre-computer the designer, tool-and-die man, foundry man, all had their finger in what became the final item. At farm shows, there is always a crowd gawking at the big tool displays.
