Garage
The vice that I have mounted to my workbench is from my maternal grandfather. It was in his garage from the days I was a little kid.

Many times I have thought about getting a bigger vice but this one is the only tool I got from that grandfather.

I have a wooden tool chest from the other grandfather that my dad used to dig into when he was a little kid. I believe it was from my great grand father. It is made with hand made nails. It was covered in sheet metal long before I was born. It is rather beat up but I got it in that condition. I would love to have an expert look at it and tell me more about it. I doubt it is worth much if any money but I would not sell it anyway.
