Among other things, such as wooden planes, were a set of calipers, which have a home next to my lathe, and a set of dividers with his name stamped on them. Other tools which get frequent use are a mill file which is crazy sharp and a draw knife for which I made new handles.
Every time I use one of these tools, I am reminded of stories my MIL has told me about the old gentleman . Every now and then, when I am visiting her, I will tell her off how Ephram's tools still give good use.

THat's awesome!
