    Default 1st Christmas present

    Today i got my first christmas present from any of my step kids. Been in their lives for about 8 years and today at lunch Jack gave me this. Jack just turned 20



    He spoke to his mum and she said a tool



    They know I like to collect things. Though i dont know how it would stand up to real use I am very pleased with the thought behind and will treasure it



    Hope you've all had soething good today.

    How cool is that. It will look great in my tool cabinet. I'll be down in a few weeks to collect.
    It's hard to determine how big it is. Is it full size?

    Pete.
    I have large hands. This is it apart



    and in the hand



    Would be good for brads and maybe out camping

    Tyler got a battery powered safe. Maybe he will lend me that for the GTG

    I know that you know the code Dave, but you are less than likely to tell me. But on the other hand, Sawdustmaker could be bribed.

    Now I re-read it and you could be right.
    In any case, I'll find a way to break in to the safe. Im thinking chains and the 4WD could do the trick.

    Default They made 2

    I have one of those hammers. Actually, a bit disappointed to see this one. I thought mine was a one off collectable, probably made as an apprentices project in the 40's or so.
    I'll try and dig it out and bring it to the GTG for comparison purposes.

    Quite a useful looking tool, all the same.
