Tool chest

Jan is working on cleaning her garage and getting rid of stuff.   Her former husband had a half dozen tool chests.  One tool chest was from her husband's father she wanted to get rid of.  Either to me, or she would put out by the road for free.  I took the chest.  Whenever I get around to organizing my tool shed I will put some of the tools in the chest.

I may have more tools in the future.  Last week I had my neighbor Curtis drill a hole through a lag bolt.  I had drilled a hole through another lag bot and broke three drill bits and it took me over an hour to drill the hole.  It took Curtis less than a minute when he used his drill press.  Curtis has lots and lots of tools.  He insisted I take a number of drill bits he picked up and gave me.  Then he talked about a truck he bought to repair.  When he bought the truck he found lots of tools in the truck.  He doesn't want the tools.  I said I would maybe take them another day.

So a tool chest may be handy for me even if it is an old tool chest.
