The arrival of the tools

The new woodworking tools have arrived and boy, are the boxes pretty.

3 of them arrived Friday via Southeastern Freight. On pallets. Thankfully, the trucking company knew to bring them out on a truck with a lift gate. Without it, I would not have been able to take delivery.

The driver was a great guy who helped me load the boxes onto my furniture dolly and wheel them into the shop, one by one. It took us the better portion of an hour to get all of them off of the truck and into the shop.

I sent him on his way with some homemade cookies. Looking back, I should have tipped him cash, but I did not even think of it.

Now to uncrate and assemble the contents of the boxes.
