I'm a retired tool addict. I enjoy the chase and finding something special hiding under some rust.

Glad to see you here!   Instead of "show us the money", it's "show us the rust"  (and it they're not rusty, that's even better!)   :grin:

BAD,  Does this mean you retired from old tools?    Of course not, it is incurable.  Welcome.

Thanks to all for the welcome. I collect mainly tools that are 50 years old and older. I have quite a few SK, Snap On, CM, and recently added some MAC. I also own a 1931 Ford 5 window coupe, although it's a loooong way from stock. When I figure out how to post pics, I'll put some up. Do they need to be hosted on a remote server?

First, look here-  http://www.papawswrench.com/vboard/index.php?topic=61.0 (http://www.papawswrench.com/vboard/index.php?topic=61.0)

Having them on a remote server is good if it supplies you with a URL for the images. If they are on Flikr, Photobucket, or such, it is even better because you don't have to resize the images.

OK, Here goes my first try to post a pic. Here's a shot of my 1931 Ford. After this, it'll be mostly about my tool addiction.

Thanks to HammerHead and Northwoods. P_Toad, the tools are running out of my ears. I don't know what to do with all of them! But thanks, I'll be around here often and look forward to the discussions. As I've said before, I'll trade just about anything I have except the wife and my dog and I'll listen to offers on the wife.
