Hello From The Us Virgin Islands

[atcspaul]

wanted to take a moment to intruduce myself. my name is paul and i moved the the beutiful island of st croix about 5 years ago from michigan. i lost all my leather tools and everything else years ago in a house fire and plan to start again here soon. i did a lot of figure carving and had hundreds of tools and gonna take time to replace them and get started again. Thank you all for sharing your imput and experience on the forum and i hope to be a contributer as i get my tools. i plan on starting to bid on a few i have seen on ebay. living in endless summer is awesome however not much in the way of stores so will have to order. we are part of the usa so the priority flat rate boxes from the us postal service are awesome. ups and fedx really expensive

. thank you for the welcomes. I ordered the tandy deluxe kit last night on ebay. 125.00 shipped and at least i will have some basics and can go from there. i build electric bicycles and plan to make a custom bag to carry the battery and basic tools for my first project after I make all the little kits that come with what I ordered to get back in the grove
