278271 David Wittner <dwittne@u...> 2024‑02‑24 What to do with old tools
Some of you may already know about this. There is something known as The
Living Tools Project that is run through a group called the Chairmakers
Toolbox (https://www.thechairmakerstoolbox.com/). It's an place to donate
tools to early career professional woodworkers or people aspiring to become
professional woodworkers. The project allows you to not only help young
woodworkers (the new generation) but also gives you a say in what happens
to the tools you donate, e.g., they stay together as a collection.
Importantly, the recipients cannot sell the tools and when they're done
using them, they are passed on to another new woodworker.

IMHO, it's a worthwhile group and a worthy cause that's at least worth a
look.

Just a thought,

DGW
