I just went out to go by Re-Tool in Acworth and it's out of business. One of my favorite stores is apparently gone for good. For those of you that didn't know, Re-Tool was a store that essentially was a swapmeet for used tools. They usually had Craftsman stuff in there but at about 1/3rd to 1/2 what Sears wants for it. I ALWAYS checked there first before I replaced lost bits of my tool sets.

For those in Athens, that's apparently the only one left in the state. It's at 1720 Epps Bridge Rd.
Suite 105
Athens, GA 30606

Never heard of them. Do they sell woodworking tools as well as mech.

Yep...you could find pretty much anything in there.

Better call 'em first....who knows...the whole chain might have dried up and blown away. The one in Acworth is still listed on Re-Tool's website. Still, it was a VERY cool place to go...sort of like a Disney World for grown up men. :lol:
