Post your OLD Tools & Accessories Thread!

I thought it would be cool to start a thread for everyone to post pictures of their old tools & related accessories. Can be old tools from family member’s, old items you find around your shop, old cool stuff that you come across while cleaning, etc.

While searching for parts to build a shelf, I just came across this tube of liquid nails. It’s funny how things have changed… I found quite a few other neat things and will be posting later.

I recently put this together. After my Dad passed away I was selling off a bunch of his tools for my Mom. He wanted me to have his stuff but I had everything he has and more.  Some of the old tools really had no value so I made garage art out of it.  All this was tools that was around from my youth.

This is just stuff I’ve already uploaded, I’ll add more later:

Also bought this router at the same time, it works well also. I just used both this weekend:

I have plenty of other misc hand tools and the sockets to go with the ratchets.I need to dig out the table saw too, for both use and for pics.

Damn good topic I should take some more pictures of stuff when I get home 

@BMack37 nice olive green B&D drill. My family got an electric B&D hedge trimmer from my grandpa. Probably from same era because it was a olive green as well.

Bought this drill for 25 bucks shipped just cause I liked the way it looked.

I like that a lot @rrmccabe 

what did you use to secure the tools and what materials did you use?? I was thinking of doing this with some of my grandfathers old tools
