New to Tool Talk
« on: June 23, 2014, 02:52:38 PM »
I got into tools by first getting what I needed, then getting what I wanted, then having my kids getting me what they thought I wanted -- now I have lots of wrenches and tools, not enough walls to display them on...  I live in Colorado and usually add to my collections from garage sales, Craigslist, and thrift stores.  As long as it doesn't make it into the house (except the basement) my wife is ok with it....

Hi, and welcome from Florida.  This is a great site!  Post up some pictures of your tools when you get time.  We all like pictures.

Hi an welcome from Illinois.

be sure to post lots of pictures.
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.

I live in Colorado Springs.  Tried to post some pictures yesterday - had to wait to shrink them because of their size.  Will post some in the pictures forum.
