About Me

Hi there!

My name is C. J. Smith. I’m a native Californian, who grew up in the 50’s and 60’s. I’ve always been intrigued by the way things work. At a very young age I would spend hours taking things apart but was not always successful at returning them to their original state.  It did not take my parents long to step in and help me to learn a better way.  I began to have an ever increasing appreciation for tools and their proper uses.

Always eager to learn more, I have now decided to start this site.  In time, I hope to not only share my ideas and experiences but also to open the door to discussions in a variety of topics relating to tools.  Hopefully I will not be the only one to learn something new and useful.
