OT Losing Tools

Well my brother and I have been next door neighbors and wrenching partners for a long time. His kids are of school age and he bought a house in a better school district. Can't fault him for that, but the compilation of tools we have acquired is now being split, leaving me out of some nice stuff, which is going to put a bigger dent in my modding budget as I'll just about have to start over. Granted he won't be too far, but who wants to drive home after wrenching and beer drinking? It's a lot easier to stumble out of the shop up to the house. Don't get me wrong, he's not getting everything, but it's a fair amount. Sorry guys, just bummed about not seeing him and his kids everyday and not being able to yell, give me a hand...

We have both bought tools over the years some are mine some are his. Example, the big 220v compressor is mine, but the rattle wrenches are his. All the jacks, jack stands, engine hoist, etc are his. We literally have been so lose in proximity for so long, what one of us didn't have the other would buy.
