I'd like to say it was one of these! But it is some creative wiring that will do the trick!

The other presents got fitted up this morning. They have had a good rub with linseed oil, but now they need to look "used".
Was there a color scheme for the tools? green? black? whatever?

Ooo those new tools like nice!

My spade came all black except the top handle is natural, as well as the axe handle and pick axe handle. The Axe head is also black.

EDIT: Actually I rather like that aluminium on the bonnet too. I didn't notice it first, that's how good it is! Also What are those on your wing top vents?

Your choice.  Au naturale with varnished timber OR your best camo job to match the vehicle.
Whatever you want.   Shiny new is nice if you don't go too far away from the vehicle.

Here's a 'variety of tool colours' pic.

btw, those vent tops are really different looking, in a good way.
