my grandad passed away in 2001 when i was too young to appreciate the personal value of his tool collection, so it went to his son, who has since started passing me items, such as these, [ATTACH=CONFIG]222365[/ATTACH]

My grandad worked in the ship yards on the River Wear, as well as at Grove(coles/steels) Cranes, this panel beating hammer was one of his collection, he kept it highly polished after use, unfortunately, due to being stored in a damp environment over the last 12 months, it needs some work doing to it, which is part of this winters project (if you look carefully, you can just make out the engraving of his initials)

another of his collection requiring some treatment
