New here but not to tools homemade, restored and yes more recently made

Just wanted to introduce myself and let you know of my interests. I am a certified welder, small engine tech, motorcycle/powersports tech, and high KvA ciol winder for a company that manufactures utility transformers. My tool interest range from collecting, restoring and using antique and vintage woodworking tools to making my own special service tools for working on everything from small engines to motorcycle and automotive repair and restoration. My current projects are a pedestal lathe manufactured as a "Liberty" lathe at the beginning of WW2 by Davis Machine Co, several 1950s era Black and Decker power tools and restoring and copying my great-grandfathers wood bodied woodplanes. All in all tools are an addiction to me and I find myself always looking for the next fix so here I am.
