That is really nice, Brent! Well done.  I sort of tried this a few years
ago, but failed. Now I have several chests!  Sigh, because I just can't
part with my "good" tools.
On the other hand, I try to get young ones interested, so I gift basic tool
sets to little people (under the watchful eye of their moms) and get them
hooked on making stuff.   If I don't get enough interested youngsters
started on this, all my stuff is just going to get auctioned off. Sigh, so
little time left.  Better to be remembered as "that old guy who gave me my
first set of real tools" rather than not being remembered at all?

Claudio, polishing the spittoon , you know...for maintenance
