Ya know , this is funny , when one of my kids need some kind of tool
I always have it and they just say "is there anything you don't have?" .

Well , yeah there is but I usually don't find that out until I go to work
on something ! lol

Another trip to the store and more new tools !

Damn skippy you buy it and cherish every one of them....i don't have a bad one yet...my wife would beg to differ but what does she know about tools...

I had 3 tool boxes rolling..won all of then in 3 contest at work...2 red medium ones about 4'tall and one nice big one about 5'6"tall and 4'wide...kept that one and it's filling up and a small red one for the fasteners and some junk as my wife would say...traded one red one with my son in law for a table saw....

Ya I have tools too. Many tools. Hand and power tools. I can work on just about anything. Wrenches and sockets up to 2 1/2" and yes they get used. Standard and metric. Speciality tools too. If I need it, I buy it. Problem now is having room to store them. Toolbox is 5' tall 4' wide and 2' deep. Need another one!
