    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.

    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

    Almost forgot my tool purchase, an iPhone X to replace my dying iPhone 5. My battery was on the way out but most importantly the pictures in low light were terrible, I'd be taking 10 photos to get one to come out and it would still be a little blurry...not good when I'm using it for work! The iPhone X camera is pretty amazing, between that camera and the screen pictures look three dimensional.

    That’s a major jump and difference going from the 5 to the X lol good for you. They really are awesome phones.

    My bank account wishes it was only you.  :)

     

    I'm often driven to buy things I don't really need based primarily on the fact that they are discounted so heavily.  I've suppressed this desire when it comes to truly useless items, but if I find an accessory set, utility knife, tape measure, or even a power tool I already have (but could "use" just one more), I usually give in to temptation. 

    I feel your pain my good sir

    With the new year comes new deals!  For at least the past few years, large retailers have put their holiday specials and seasonal stock on clearance through January and February, translating to great deals for the persistent and/or fortunate.  Things to look for:

     

    DeWalt and Milwaukee bit sets

    Holiday tool kits

    Left over Black Friday deals (some Lowe's stores have stacks of the ugly camouflage Werner ladder for $25 still, this is sure to go down if they don't sell)

    Blade combos (check the aisles if the holiday displays are torn down)

     

    I've found leftover holiday promotions as late as May, often paying 50-75% less than the already great promotional price.  So happy hunting, and I hope everyone has a great 2018!

     

    I hear 75% off tools and I just start salivating....is it just me?? Oh....ok....
