The part I get is "how much for that hammer?" I have collected four of those type of screwdrivers over the years. That hammer is a beautiful thing!

What is the screwdriver sitting on? Some kind of fulcrum?
And what's with that number 4 at the tip?

I've never seen a hammer like that, but I do have 3 sizes of those screwdrivers I inherited from my father.

If it can't be fixed with a screwdriver, smash it with the hammer!

Jim I love a good paint worn hammered in work bench like you have. A rusty, or nice painted work bench is one that doesn’t get used enough

It could have been that guy. I heard that at one time in the past he collected about 20 very early Briggs and Stratton air cooled engines, many with exposed overhead valves. Oh look, a pipe wrench!

Bubba, did you sell yours to a barner from Idaho? I bought the one on ebay and I'm mighty glad I did. It cost about what a month of medicare supplement for the part that doesn't include the prescriptions. And it was way,way more fun to get in my mailbox.
