Should I stay or should I go? - Bill - 04-19-2005
Wife's grandfather wants to give me a bunch of industrial grade tools. Planer/bandsaw/tablesaw/joiner....etc. He's getting too old to use'um anymore and everybody else either doesn't do that kinda shit or don't take good enough care of their stuff. They are in town visiting and approached me sunday and said he wanted me to have the stuff. I was alittle confused, but This means I have to drive to Atlanta and back in a weekends time. Discuss:

How old, quality, and such are the tools?

dood retired from the city (was a maintance superviser) and were talking industrial floor model shit. maybe 10-15 years old. And knowing him they are in like new condition. Old mans a real stickler for keeping things up.

Fucking get them. I would kill to have that stuff. Absolutely get them. I bought an industrial grade lathe and to get the lathe, the basic tools and stuff was nearly $1,000.
Don't pass this up. Those things are valuable and you will love working with them.

last time I was there, you could eat off of his work bench. Dood's just that way. Downfall is having to rent a U-haul trailer to get the stuff home.

Hell, just call a moving company and hire them to go get them and move them. Probably wouldn't cost that much more. And they pack it all up.

One thing about tools like that, it is better to just not get anything than to get the cheap stuff.

Call the movers, like asshat said. Good idea, that.

no actually, part of me doesn't what to go. Only reason why he offered them to me is because I take care of my shit.

that's won't happen. Mrs Bill wants to tag along to spend time with her grandparents.

if she wants to tag along, leave her down there for a week or two.

if you go, there will be trouble.
And if you stay, there will be double?
