Sounds like the mens shed could do with a pot belly stove for the winter.
Keep the coffee pot warm!

I offered quite a lot of handtools to the local Men's shed, they however gave me the impression that they did not want anymore hand tools & would on sell them.I have therefore offered them to my nephew cabinet maker who may find a use for them .
I thought on visiting the local Men's shed that perhaps they were more interested in employing electrical energy rather than physical energy ,hence the no desire for any "more" hand tools.Johnno

We were been given so many hand tools they became a storage problem. Not that many are in what I would call good shape. Some could be repaired but some are beyond repair, e.g. pliers with jaws than don't meet properly. My feeling is the crappy ones should be given away or tossed. A few years back we were given 20 sets of decent hand tools from a prison. A number of these have ended up being donated to a womens prison. We gave some to a primary school and a few have been sold but we still have too many crappy ones and not enough good ones.

Decent handtools are rarely given to the shed I'm in. Planes are rare, braces are common (but very few bits for some reason)
blunt rusty unsalvageable chisels are also pretty common
and the poorer quality electric toolsregards
