My grandfather was an old school German American machinist. He worked as an apprentice, journeyman, master, then he had a pattern making shop in Boston Massachusetts before he retired. During WWII he turned huge shell casing dies for the war effort. He kept a mini shop in his cellar and would work late into the night solving problems. When he sold the business he moved to the village of Kennebunkport Maine. He was a deacon at the Methodist Church and bought the golf cart concession at Cape Arundel golf course where the Bush family plays. I have a few golf cart stories [emoji6]
I got a Gerstner chest full of odds and ends when he passed away.
Here's a shot of my favorite of his little tools. The second one isn't Brown & Sharpe but very useful nonetheless. Great memories of the days I spent with that man.
