G'day from Perth

[shinbones]

Hi all, I'm Scott and have to admit I'm not much of a carpenter but I'm slowly improving with every mistake. I've just got my hands on an old chest of tools that belonged to my grandfather and quite probably my great grandfather before him (I'm 41, so that makes some of them pretty old!). My plan is to restore and preserve them but first I'd like to know what some of them are... and that's why I'm here I'd be grateful if someone could let me know which forum would be best to post a few pics of my mystery tools to ask for identification, please? Thanks heaps, Scott.

Hi Scott,
Welcome to the forum you will find a wealth of knowledge available here as for the best heading to put up photo's of items I would suggest you use the general woodwork or antique and collectable tools and machines. Again glad to have you here.
Regards Rod.
