OK, I have this tool thing. I am not a collector in the sense that
many are, with the need to fill in a perfect set of say all of the
Stanley metal planes for the sheer joy of the finding and assembling.
I find orphan tools, bring them home mend them and USE them.
But there are SO many poor orphan tools, and they are so needy (sigh).
So I have a few hammers, and a couple of saws, and a few planes,
and I really do use them, you can call home and ask my wife !! Oh,
and then there are the mallets...
Please enjoy the attached pictures, knowing all of these tools with
the exception of the two brand new Warrington pattern hammers,
were once dirty, rusty orphans. And my favorite upholstery tack
hammer is the one at the top of the picture with all of the tack
hammers, and it is just a plain vanilla Osborne bronze head
magnetic that I have had for 30 years.
