This is a serious issue when to get old and need to remove 914 parts you collected hiding in boxes, rafters, basement & secrete places. This is a time in my life when I realize everything needs to go. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) I enjoyed buying the stuff over a 15-20 years period, but now as you grow older it's a difficult decision getting rid of stuff. Kids & family would never know what to do with collected treasures & just throw in the trash when your underground (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) Reminds me of my Dad when he passed away all us kids had to move tons of stuff. I am not feeling good about this & just venting (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) It's a huge task to list & price items. I don't like doing it & finding more every day, moving is a bitch (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) Tom Attached thumbnail(s)

Have you had fun with the 914 and collecting parts over the years? If so, I would give it a +1. Good call with making the kids job easier when you check out. I have been thinking along the same lines, but have not taken action. Hats off to you for moving forward with helping your heirs.

Good time to catalog everything you have so you can use it to keep yourself from buying more of the same parts or when a member reaches out asking for a part you know you have one to offer.
