  Dave Merry and his tools have been through a lot together. When he was 19, he built a model airplane with a real working engine that won first prize at the South Dakota State Fair. That was an especially sweet moment. Dave's big brother George Merry, who'd helped him build his first plane and taught him everything about tools, had died four years before. Maintaining the connection to his tools was a way for Dave to keep his brother's memory alive.

  And the tools built new memories too. They helped Dave, now 80, repair his home in St. Paul, Minnesota, where he and his wife, Annette Merry, lived for 46 years and raised three children. The tools were placed in his carefully organized workshop. "I had a whole set-up, and it was beautiful," says Dave.

  But then Annette suffered a disease that left her relying on a walker to get around and the Merrys decided to move into assisted living. Dave's workshop was obviously a minor consideration given Annette's condition, but the family knew that giving it up, on top of everything else, would hurt.

  It was one of the Merrys' friends who came up with a possible solution. He'd heard about some people who were setting up a tool library. Might Dave be interested in donating his?

  "I said yes," Dave says.

The people creating the St. Paul Tool Library were thrilled. They had expected it would take a year to collect enough tools. Instead it took one day: the day Dave donated his.
