In my youth I always lusted after a shed full of bench secured equipment, drills, lathes ,welding etc.

Never happened...

I love things like that . What a beautiful quality piece of equipment !..... :thumright:

I've restored a couple of Dinky racing cars which I trashed as a boy , plus an old 1930s pyramid shaped 5gal garage oil can and also an old 1930s picnic hamper found in my daughters attic.
But what REALLY hacks me off is that with so many people , their first question is , "what's it worth then"?

Well I don't care , they're not for sale ! And I hope that lovely old Bilstein jack isn't either .. :thumleft: :thumleft:

Old tackle is usually the best.

Indeed, but that isn't the point.....

TBH, I'd rather do rather than watch, so didn't last long with the video.
