Yes I agree but also it's not fair to leave a 'clear up liability' for your relatives.

I'm taking the view that they can spend some of my money on paying people to clear it up after I have gone. The sooner it is sorted the sooner they get the rest of my money :thumbup:

My Dad recieved his Dads lathe and tools when he passed and I recieved both lathes as Dad had one too along with a shaper, drill press, tablesaw ect when he passed but I had to drive out from Calgary to Victoria BC and haul them back. When I bite it my son will get it all house included but if I had a son (or daughter) that didn't want anything to do with my hobby I would rather
(a) give tools to a buddy
(b) or see if one of these makersheds could use them.

I agree it would be nice to give stuff to those who would appreciate it but I see my stuff as my toys rather than as an asset. If my next of kin like it they can choose to keep it or they could sell it, give it away or even get it carted away. I think the idea of my stuff making it's way to some enthusiast's hands at a bargain basement price through an auction or garage sale and making them feel like they have just won the lottery would make me chuckle in my grave.
