The Expat Part 3

I wrote twice already about the young man from abroad that left the country suddenly to go home or elsewhere and donated great stuff to the curbside that he couldn't take with him. Interesting books, a tool I let my neighbour take and the watches that I gave to the thrift shop.

Not really to make order, but a few days ago I remembered there were still two plastic boxes from that lot that were shoved under a chair somewhere and I was curious to see what was still in them.

To my surprise: two brand new pliers and a cable stripper. Probably not needed at the time, because I have a fairly well filled toolbox, but I will add them tomorrow anyway. I'll see if they can replace old stuff or otherwise be a good addition to what I have. You can never have enough pliers if they're all just that different from each other!

I've got a load of allen keys, but some are kind of rusty. I'm going to sort that out, keep the best and all neccessary sizes for myself and send the rest to the shop. Solder wire is going there as well. Rubber ballon, I think used to blow off dust from fine electronics, no need. But a brand new paint brush is always good to have at hand. Screwdriver is a keep. I can't have enough. Same for the mini screwdrivers. Isolation tape also you just never know.

The other box was near empty already. There was more electronical stuff in it like bags full of transistors that I donated to the shop a long time ago. The leftovers are to be trashed I'm afraid. The box is nice and handy with the separable top 'drawers', but I don't have use for it. 

On top it's an original Tupperware. I just wiped off the worst dust for the photo... Imagine how long it had been there. I'll wash it for real tomorrow and take it, with the other one, to the shop on Wednesday.
