Bingo, but we never know what we have to miss, if we never have had it, Bob. These tools are invaluable to folks that did without those china tools, and electricity, and needed to do a job. Learning hand tools, and using them, wil teach a person about wood, and helps in the selection of it, and cuts for a particular need, that was required long before epoxy, and epoxy coatings was so cool, too.
