I have sold my complete wood shop in preparation for our move to TV this month....I figure I can build all the furniture I want at the TV wood shop. I am bringing hand tools and power tools that have cases so that I can do normal DIY projects if the mood strikes.

All kidding aside. There is not much "floor space" in the garage for large tools. With that said, bring as much as you can that will fit in your garage, you will not be sorry. Would you like to hear why tools are better to have than wives?

It really doesn't matter what tools he brings. I can promise you the one he desperately needs is the one he left at home!

The only tool you need is a checkbook.

Add patience and common sense to that and your toolbox should be complete.
