Man, if I ever used those tools the packing up after a job might take longer than the job. I would probably need instructions. It is beautiful though.

- ofalkaed 2y agoWhen you work primarily with hand tools you need to get in the habit of taking the tool out of the chest when you need it and putting it away as soon as you are done with it or your bench quickly gets over run with tools leaving no space for the work at hand. Pleasant side effect, you only need to remember where a tool goes for a short time and only need to remember that for a few tools at any given time. Would certainly need an atlas to navigate that thing and find the tool you needed.
- tocs3 2y agoA habit I have lacked all my life. A messy workspace make for a terrible environment to do work. I am blessed and cursed with a large workshop (inherited) with lots of tool and I do not know where they are. When I win the lottery I am going to hire a shop steward.
- ofalkaed 2y agoAfter a 4th or 5th time I had a chisel go off the bench I learned my lesson. Chisels always go down blade first and when your floor is concrete it means a good amount of time fixing that edge. And it always tends to be the big chisels that jump off the bench, never that 1/8" which could be made like new in a few minutes.
