Today I've been tasked with meeting with the principal survivors of my recently deceased BIL. The agenda is to label what tools were ours and what were his so they can decide who gets what. When we retired, he and I each stored some of the tool of the trade. We had duplicate nail guns that we used all of the time but many were unique guns that we only had one of. We had multiple sanders, routers, drills, and the like, but also had unique electrical tools. The bottom line is, our company purchased most everything we used to earn a living. Many of the items would only be of use to a trim carpenter. Lots of the everyday sort of desirable tools I do not want and will never use again. It's not going to be fun sorting out the tools and it bothers me that it has to happen so quickly after my partner's passing.
