So, yesterday my woman walked out onto the porch and found a gift type bag sitting on the porch. There were a couple t-shirts in it and these.
Turns out my mom did a quick and stealthy visit and left the bag on the porch as a happy V-day present.
These axes came from my parents neighbor Rusty that lives on the lake they live on. I had asked her about any old rusty axes that she may have laying around the garage or sheds awhile back. I guess these are what she came up with.
These would have been here husband Doug's tools and he was quite a character. I remember he would rip around the lake at 6am in this little wooden race preped hydroplane on mornings after others on the lake had stayed up all night raising hell. This loud a$$ boat was usually fired up right after a canon blast to get everyones attention. Guess it was morning payback for those with hangovers and I can remember a time or two where I wanted to swim over in the dark and pull the plug to sink that little boat. Glad I didn't because as I grew older we all developed a love for that old goat. He was a good man and is missed dearly on the lake.
I will post periodically here as I get around to rehabing these. I kinda like the Craftsman.
I can't find markings on the other two. I think the boys axe will go in the trunk of my woman's car once its finished.
