Can you guess what’s in my toolbox?

In preparation for an upcoming snowstorm I took the aluminum job box off my truck. After emptying the various tools, tool boxes, bags, ropes, cords, fasteners and a pile of debris I lifted the aluminum box off my truck and set it on blocks for storage. I remember needing a wrench from my red toolbox to remove some chains fastened in the truck bed… Two days later I noticed the aluminum box was open and filled with snow.

Not only did I leave the job box open, exposing most of my every day tools to the storm but I left my red toolbox open inside the job box.

I brought the toolbox inside and dumped ‘em out to dry.

A little steel wool and some WD-40 and we’re good to go.

I have a uHaul trailer attached to my truck and I’m bringing home a load of older tools, many of which will eventually make it to this site. Thanks for visiting and hope to enthusiastically contribute more to toolboxblog.com very soon.

As a general contractor and constant blogger, I spend a great deal of my life in my workshop or on my computer. I am focusing my tools on one site so we can refer to them and maybe one day have a decent resource. I am always looking for fixes, advice, opinions and reviews before I buy and sometimes much later down the road. Who else owns tools from the 1900′s? I do and I use them.

With your help I can develop an effective format to share my experience.
