We are having a gigantic clear out after a lifetime of hoarding.

I found my much used Haltrac Hoist . Extracted or put in many engines back in the 70’s. Prior to that I used to use proper hoist at local farm.

Couldnt imagine me ever using it again orr anyone else. ( the string might just have degraded!) .

So in the bin it went. I still have tools that are older.

What is oldest tool that you have ?

[Andy B]

not sure of the oldest but I've a pair of ramps that are over 40 yrs old ... theyre good enough to put my Smart on but I'll pass at putting 2.2t of ML on them 

[Sir Tigger KC]

There are plenty of old tools on here!

I thought a Haltrac hoist was the sort of thing used in care homes to get old duffers like you on and off the bog.

Do you have a favourite tool?

For years it was an old pair of mole grips. But now a snarling smoky 2 stroke chainsaw has now taken it's place.

When you get to a certain age you can't be bothered getting on and off the bog.....just fill your pants and hear it squelch when you sit down.

I have a woodsaw which is quite charismatic, but not as gorgeous as my circular saw

A man needs a saw that can cut through human femur bone in case his wife becomes surplus to requirements but wants 50% of everything.

The first time I fitted a kitchen (20+ years ago) I treated myself to a Skilsaw Classic. Still makes me smile whenever I fire it up. Goes through any wooden board like a knife through butter.

Still got the wheelbrace that came with my brand new Ford Escort Mexico in August 1973 so now had it 50 years .

You must have owned all my previous cars...

Everytime I buy one, I have to replace the toolkit

[TheBoy]

For some reason, none of my tools are older than 10yrs, 6 weeks......

No spare wheel with the Mexican. Supposedly to save weight and the environment.
