I have over the year always talked about how great and fantastic possibillity it is for you to have acces to fleamarkets and other places where it is possible to buy good used beautyfull handtools
more or less rusty but with a little albowe grease and knowledge is going to bee great users again
I have envy you alot when I have seen your toolgloats witch has cost mee many green bulbs and keybords becourse of the droooling
and sometimes I have even been say I have a little gloat underway lately people have told me not to hide them anymore
and its ain´t fair to talk about them with out showing them.

last time I showed you some pictures from the last gloat that I have been lucky enoff to be able to buy :-)

to get the tools I had to ask my dear sister to drive a few hours each way and trust her geting everything as advertised …...yah right you know how things go when you send someone with out any knowledge of tools and even less about woodworking tools , nothing to blaime her she did and out standing job driving forth and back geting the tools and pay the man …..explanation later to come just have a little
patience when I punish and torture the English language …LOL
.
.
the agreement with my sister was to drop the tools at my mother who had said they
cuold stay there until I visit her ….....time unnown at that time …but a great excuse to do
it before Chrismas ….yaah right
with the job I have November and December is overloaded with overtime work 90 -100 hours a week were more the normal than the 50 hours last year :-(
but then My mother wanted to see my daughter and exchange Chrismas gifts so it was scheduled to be the first weekend in December …he he ..yuubii the tools wuold arive by them self …..no no
thursday started a big bliz and snowstorm &%#%& and here I have promissed
L J a gloat Hmmf .. no tools that weekend so we scheduled a new visit the weekend before Chrismas …..yah right
another big blitz started thursday ….so no fammely visit before Chrismas and no tools :-(

in the autumn my daughter was told she had rheumatism/arthritis of some kind but they cuoldn´t tell what kind but it was that , that have done so her jaw in one of the side was different from the other and a surgery was needed in the future and there for the hospital send us to a spealist dentist
who shuold deside what ,when and where, it was in århus near my mothers place ….yep tool in sight
just let me finish this first , I was realy down in the autumn over the sickness my daughter have at an age of ten, but fortunaly the dentist deside she shuold to go with a braceless first to force the bones in the jaw to grow longer
and wait until she was older so the surgery is prosponed a few years for now …well enoff of that lets get back to the tools
Silke and I overnighted at my mother place , and there I discovered that what I feared from when my mother told me she cuoldn´t get the framed planes of …....@&%¤# they were glued on
but for once I had a little luck since I remembered my trusty old Jiigsaw so those I cuoldn´t wack of with a gently wack was sawn out from the sheed
there was so many tools that it did take me a few hours to pack half off them down to bring home
the sack waighted crazy 46 kg nearly 100 pounds and I had to drag them via bus , train and ferry beside thrugh the half of Århus
the week after we was in Århus again where she got the finished braceless and I got the rest of the tools with me home ….....in the meen time I had worked in the basement with Citric acid to remove rust
from some of the other gloat´s …..........and they call vacation relaxing time …LOL
