WWII and This OLD House? - Walt's Daughter - 10-23-2007


Yes, this is not our normal avenue, but let me 'splain how we got from point A to point B. :lol:

 

This Old House you are probably asking! What does this Old House have to do with WWII? Well here we go...

 

There was a one page article:

 

Around the House - Get Cranked For This - A California collector put his wrenches on display

 

This gentleman, Carl "Bud" Bolt has a wrench museum, and it also stated he was a former World War II mechanic.

 

So tonight I sat down, went to his website and emailed him. I hope he will write back. :armata_PDT_01: Here's the website:

WWII and This OLD House? - 206thmpco - 10-24-2007


VERY cool site M1! :clappin2: I'd love to visit in person. I've got all

my grandfather's tools from the early 1900s and also all my Dad's.

My father had an enormous tool box & I've carefully put most everything

in there. I bought some naval jelly & one of my many winter "projects"

is gonna be to spiff up a few tools that need some TLC.

 

I have some gigantic wrenches & alot of other stuff I've got no clue what

they're for.

:unsure:
