My husband and his tools, a labor of love

To give you an idea of how many tools/supplies he had, a 40 foot cargo container was full and a 16 foot trailer.

He had tools for every single trade.

He was a genius and 100% self taught.

I was a minimalist, but he was not when it came to tools.?
?
He did woodworking
(he made my dream kitchen below out of a maple tree he and his dad cut down on the family farm and this beautiful cherry wood table below ?as well as many other extravagant projects)?
?
He did mechanics
(He tore apart his entire F350 truck twice last year to fix the turbo, There was a part missing the first time so He did it in half the time the second time??)?

heating and cooling, electrical, welding, plumbing, siding, painting, concrete, framing, roofing and everything in between.?

He taught all three of our children.

When the girls were in high school, ?We gutted an ?ugly duckling and made it into this dream home.??

?At age 11, Andrew built his first tiny home with his dad.

?My daughter kept enough for her lifetime and I kept enough for Andrew and I? to have a basic set.
?
We had already sold quite a bit to friends before the sale and I still had to make six trips to the site.

Tomorrow, I hope to reduce it to only one trip home and sell the rest at an auction.
