Great review of a kit I've been eyeing up for a commandeered garage diorama. Just spit-balling but could the wood working tools be accounted for by many vehicles pre WW2 having wooden bodies that would need repair? And the anvil from the early days of garages when they would have had to fabricate their own repair parts? Anyway, looks perfect for what I want to portray.

woodworking for jigs, bracing, stands, all kinds of support activity for other trades. or for patching that leaky roof or busted window!

just tuck them under the bench for "when"!

I've been patiently waiting a month, with another to go, for a reprint of this book https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1333650817/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 in preparation of winter project #101 - garage & repair gas station in 1:35. I find it fascinating to see how much wood was used in automotive settings prior to the snap on truck making its weekly rounds.
