New to the site, rather new to tool collecting but the girlfriend and I are getting into more and more all the time. Which works out well cuz if she gets worked up aboUT me buying tools I just tell her they are ours.hahaha But recently I've gotten more interested in oddball that aren't as common to find so I figured it's time to join some sites to share and maybe even bor row information.

Welcome to Tool Talk!

Tell us about the tools you have found and the ones you are interested in, and I bet someone here will help you along on the journey.

Well lately we've been collecting anything small. 4 inch Cresent wrenches, got some 6 inch pipe wrenches lately too. She has started collecting old ratchets lately. She's got a nice old craftsman, proto, snap on, sk, all 3/8 so far. Did score a super nice old Williams 1/2 drive torque wrench a few weeks back. Lots of small pliers, machinist tools,  vises, and anvils. Whatever we can find a good deal on.  Look forward to sharing some finds soon.
