We’re hosting an estate sale April 20-21 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 2028 Forest Hill Drives in Silver Spring, MD that is packed with an absolutely massive amount of tools – the most we’ve ever seen in any home – along with a large collection of outdoor and adventure gear, cool toys, men’s watches, costume jewelry, Mid Century furniture made in Denmark and much more.  See our Facebook page to view hundreds of photos at www.facebook.com/orionsattic.

The house was owned by a man who was an engineer by day and a first-class craftsman, builder and Mr. Fix It by night. The gentleman hoarded tools. We've found a number of them brand new in the box. He was also clearly an avid outdoorsman who liked to ride motorcycles and bicycles.
