My hat is off to Craftsman like you , Jack and several others who have personally given me aspiration to follow and try to get on board with this slippery slope. I enjoy good quality tools old and new and am slowly ( as money allows ) to pick up some handtools so I can hopefully produce work like I have seen on this forum. I do appreciate everyone's unselfulness who contribute and one day I hope to as well.
