Framed Rusty Tools


I was cleaning out my dad's tool bench recently and found these assorted rusty tools hiding at the bottom of the drawers and decided to frame them because looking at them makes me happy.

I don't know what my dad is going to think when he sees what I've done with his stuff, but they were just sitting there unappreciated in all the glory of their age and rust.

These tools are up to fifty years old, they just don't make them like that anymore.

  2. Hi,
    Great job on the frame !

    I was just wondering, how did you attach your tools to the frame, did you use some sort of glue ?

    Thanks,

  3. This is such a great idea. My dad passed away recently and I found some of his old rusty tools that he didn't want to part with. Now I know what I can do with them.
