Hi. My name is cegammel, and I am a tool addict. Now I shall brag about my recent conquest of a lovely little thing...a little past my normal age requirement, but beautiful all the same...a 1946 Snap On 1/2 inch ratchet, left in the rusty bottom of a rusty box in the dusty corner of a dusty shop. With it was a '30s SO tool box, in good but rusty shape. Now both are cleaned and back in service. The box has a leather handle, which I am afraid won't survive long in the shop, so it becomes a house box. The ratchet gets used.

Now, I just have to hide my plethora of ratchets from the wife...

Well, the good thing about additional boxes is that they can hide additional tools!!

Currently rocking the 1941-1946 SnapOn K-55R box, (in red of course) as my "road box,"

Addictions? Me, along with a few of my 339 antique fans.

Hahaha I wasn't sure if that photo was taken years ago, or recently…

In my case, definitely approching hoarder...scored two classic Proto ratchets last night...sick, twisted, demented...

Hoarding? Nah...no way! Now, let's talk about my other collections of Zenith Transoceanic radios, and my jacket hoard, ah, er, "collection".
