new here, I'm a tool collector

[skipskip]

Good Morning:

I am a tool collector, I collect some woodworking , mechanics and agricultural tools.

And any that have good "coolness" factor.

In the tool world if you find an unknown tool, it is either  called a nutcracker, if it has handles, or a leather tool if its sharp.

(We are not known for deep insight, nor humor)

I hope to actually discover which ones actually ARE leather tools.

I'll read a lot and look at the pics, and prolly post a few pics of 'mystery' tools, if it's appropriate.

Thanks, from upstate NY

Hi Skip,

I am also a tool collector and user (both wood and leather). I normally live in upstate NY, in the Thousand Islands north of Watertown, though I am in Australia at the moment. 

Whereabouts in Upstate NY are you?

Cheers,
Dan
