Is this quantity or quality?
Quantity is just too hard to remember. I guess I never got a huge slug at one time. No dumptruckloads or anything. I did give a truckload away once.
The son of a friend of mine found an old bottle in his yard.
I couldn't pay him what it was worth, so I gave him $230 dollars or so (what I could scrape up) and then covered the bed of his pickup with tools. Mostly mechanic stuff because he likes old cars and works on them some, but a few woodworking tools because I always have hope. heh
Since he didn't know the bottle was was worth anything at all, he was pretty happy.
I never found a big score of tools all at once, in never missing a yard or estate sale if I could help it, all my life. I try to never even miss a swap meet when on vacation in a strange town!!
But then I have been pretty picky for these last 40 years so I don't see tons of stuff that interests me.
If I come home with 2 or 3 boxfull's, its a big score for me.
Quality??
The great tools in my life have pretty much come by the each. I have a shed and a basement shop and these are both stuffed. But I also have a small glass front display cabinet inside the house. The tools in that box? Well pretty much all of them I can tell a story about.
