Actually, that's a reassuring detail, because even a crazy person would not
cut up a panther-head to make it fit in a pretend box, right? There was
mangled keyhole saw in the first one that was bothering me, but if he's
"rescuing" damaged tools then that's cool, right?

On the scale of old tool abuse, this is pretty low (if we grant that he's
not cutting these things down). Have you seen the guy who glues dowels into
old (undamaged) saw handles for no reason?
