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 by suicide four years before. George was only 21. Maintaining the connection to his tools was a way for Dave to keep his brother’s memory alive.
