Found this while cleaning out
Old school gas boat. Circa early 80s I assume. My grandpa built it. We don't have it anymore or the engine but I do still have the radio and servos out of it which is futaba gear from the late 70s.

Anyways to cleaning the cabinets and my whole workbench area. My grandpa passed away about a year before I was born so most of his stuff has been sitting there for 19 or so years I touched and finally decided to clean organize go through and condensed some of his stuff. Most stuff like tools hardware and house maintenance stuff I kept in the bottom cabinet but the top cabinet I cleaned out for all of my stuff.
On the other side of the basement (ie we call the gun cabinet wall since his gun cabinet is there) there was a pile of mostly junk so I went through that as well found some tools I kept but most of it went to the dump. Moved my 4ft table over to that side wall. After my grandpa passed my uncle took his "UHD" workbench which is now in storage so once I get it out and into the basement I'll have a good study HD workbench with more space so I'll be ditching the 4ft folding table and we'll be finding a mini fridge/freezer to put on the gun cabinet wall.

Also we used to have a landline phone and it stopped working and they came out and installed this external box. Since we don't have a landline anymore and haven't had it for 3 years I took my workbench real estate back from Verizon.
