What an excellent idea and a nice catch, Mike. I really enjoyed the stories that everyone shared in that thread and I hope they can be given life here, too!

The stories really remind us that these were tools and possessions of real people (much like the artefacts I show to my students) and it's great to keep them passed around for a wide audience.
