having the paperwork in order and list of what the good stuff is and where it should go is the least you can do . . .

Fortunately my boys say they will argue but
I have a steel rabone scale with a railway engine etched onto the back, named and dated 1911. There are not many square corners on it and a couple of marks from being caught up in something rotating. It came from one of my fathers mentors, who helped me when i was younger. I keep that one on my desk for inspiration.I've got a ways to go yet (I hope), but I've thought about this too. Every time I use one of my dad's tools it's a trip down memory lane, and a smile too.
Where will his old tools, and my tools, go? Not sure. My son will keep a few, but he'll never use 'em. The machines I'll sell, and if I'm gone my wife knows who to contact for help.
Well, you're supposed to finally be able to travel! That's right...you can sit in congested airports waiting on delayed flights, stay in nasty hotels around the globe, pay exorbitant prices for food, and suffer all the incoveniences of not being home. That's my dream, anyway.Quite literally, I will be working into my 80s, so I'll probably die in front of the CAM workstation.
What else have I to do?
If possible, I try to pass on stuff to others who *do* have a good use for it....kinda makes it a "win-win" for all. Even better if a trade can be arranged!It can be very difficult to throw out/donate/sell stuff, but I do force myself to do this continuously,
