I¡¯ve been lurching into the creation of a spreadsheet so that my XYL has something to start with if I suddenly depart. I do need to include tools.?
I¡¯ve sold about 70% of my coins already. Collections are fun in the acquisition, then sit in a safe. I¡¯ve decided to cash them out, keeping a few favourites.?
This post does remind me that I need to finish that.?

Indeed!? Dealing exactly with that issue this past week with my neighbour.
He had two working homebrew all band HF amps - not really up to snuff
with appearance per my requirements, but chock full of 813's, 4-400's,
big heavy Hammond HV xformers, roller inductors, and big caps.? There
was a box of new 4-400's and another full of 813's. Three working
rotators including a Tailtwister.? He told me that if I didn't take it,
he would take it to the dump that day.? He's in a suddenly desperate
situation with the health of his wife, his own health, and his
house/property is sold. He walked away from a shop full of tools,
including power tools, most of which will be for the new owner to sort
out what stays and what goes.
Now I have to figure out what to do with them.? But I just couldn't let
them go to the landfill.
I still have to rescue an HF GEM quad with enough spare spreaders and
spiders to make 2 more, an MA-40 crank-up, which is now on the ground,
and a TA-33 triband beam.
Plan now - I know I am, though it will be a bigger job than it was!
