Sunday Stills Challenge – Hand Tools

Our challenge from Ed this week, “This weeks challenge is hand tools, I made it hand tools to give it a bit of a challenge. Bonus points for really old tools.”  I thought yeah! I knew what I wanted to do right away.  We headed into the nearby small town of Sweetwater where the main attraction is their antique stores.  One in particular where Chuck always gravatates to a booth with old tools.  Eureka!!

  4. Nice selection of old tools!

  5. Great series of photos for the challenge!

  6. Great entry. I remember seeing tools similar to those in the 4th photo when I was very young, can’t remember what their purpose was. Do you know what they are?

  7. Great shots, visiting that Antique store was genius!

  8. Great selection, liked them all.

  9. Great selection. Remember my grandfather using all of these, apart from the gardening tools, not his idea of fun at all. I think I’ve tried them all at some point too.
