In Russel S's Minor Tool Gloat Thread he mentioned having several of his grandfather's tools and Todd Burch chimed in that he has several from his grandfather as well.
I also have some of my grandfather's tools. The ones I use the most are his old framing square and a 2' level. Neither are anything fancy or collectible but just tools that a man who worked with them his whole life used and passed on to me. I use them all the time and like to think that maybe he's looking over my shoulder to see that I'm doing things right like he used to when I was young.
Just wondering who else has a few special tools like that around.
