You are not alone Jerry....

When mt grandfather passed away 48 years ago, I was given his oak tool chest with the brass hinges and drawer pulls. It is loaded with incredible machinists and millwrights tools, mostly Starrett. Every time I open it to check it out I feel like I am lifting the lid of the Ark of the Covenant, and might get struck by lightning because I am not worthy to even look at precision tools that are over 100 years old in some cases.
