Old Plastering Tools?

What to do with a shed full of old Plastering tools, my late father was a plaster all his life and he left me with various trowels, feather edge items, mortar stands etc. I will keep a couple of items for sentimental reasons however, it would be nice to avoid giving these to the scrap man and find somewhere that could benefit from them. Any ideas please!
Enjoy everyday like it's your last!

    Look on Ebay under sold listings to see if any interest has been taken in the past.

    Retirement means loneliness for some men , man shed enables them to meet other people in the same boat

    I second this suggestion. We donated a load of joiners tools to a group who renovate boats as a community project and they were so appreciative. I know that my father would have been really pleased that they would continue to be used.:)
