The tool box

[Hovannes]

Old school prepping! I've got a Sears tool set from the 1970s which my parents gave me. It has survived intact (actualy it's grown heavier, like me) and has made possible repaires (orthe demise) of all sorts of things. Perhaps these are among one of the most useful, and overlooked pieces of gear.
I know many people who have a kitchen drawer woth a few screw drivers and a pair of pliers but a real tool kit (and a healthy dose of humility) is a good thing to have in an emergency.

Good afternoon, Hovannes,

Well, you've finally mentioned something of which I have plenty. When I had a vehicle, I always had either a set of tools or a tool box in it and I have a tool box for the house, too. I have both sets of tools from each of my two vehicles. The vehicles are gone, but I still have the tools. I also have manual yard tools in a safe place.
So, I have a good assortment of tools on hand.

Last week, I picked up six D cell Duracell batteries. I left them packaged and put them behind the old boom box, which is on a shelf in my music room. That reminds me, I need to see if Goodwill can repair the audio cassette player on it. It is an old boom box. I bought it used, for a dollar in 1989, and it was old, then. I can still pick up AM radio stations on it and the speakers have great sound.
Yes, I have an aclyctic nature.

God loves you and yours,
Don
