Tools for Living in an Old House

I have had several friends say this to me.


"We want to live in an old house, but we are going to wait until we retire,"


That sounds okay, but I think there is more to it than that.  After two years here I have come up with a list of the top ten requirements for living in an old home.  Of course, some of these are not necessary if you have unlimited financial resources.  Here we go!




10.  A love for old things


  9.  An air compressor


  8.  Lots of time


  7. Work gloves


  6. Creativity


  5. Power tools.  Lots of them.


  4. A pro account at the local hardware store


  3. A desire for community


  2. Nerves of steel


  1. A Purdy 2-1/2" tapered paint brush
