My dad had those b&d bits and a bench grinder one too. I have the drill but nothing else. It’s strong as hell. Nothing like the modern crapMore stuff I didn't know was in there:

Today I acquired - a new printer.
Well it's not new but nearly new just reporting an error. Guy at work lost his rag with it and got a new one. I brought it home and found an air duster straw inside preventing the print head from parking properly.

I found the circular saw attachment when clearing Dad's shed, again if anyone wants it they are welcome.I'm not sure but I think I binned a load of B&D attachments, to go on a drill. Jig saw, circular saw, grinder. Seemed no call for them, none on eBay etc. Off chance I might still have them...
You're welcome to them if they're still about.
It’s ok thanks. I’ve got the ‘proper’ ones but cheers anyway.I'm not sure but I think I binned a load of B&D attachments, to go on a drill. Jig saw, circular saw, grinder. Seemed no call for them, none on eBay etc. Off chance I might still have them...

You must give the name and place, so we can go a looking.Acquired some painting rollers, but on the way we stopped by the house clearance salvage place to see if anything of interest. In a dark corner under some rubbish there were a few broken tools, some crowbars, and a couple of 24" Record pipe wrenches; which came home with me.

Its here in South Wales, I didn't see a name on the old building, but I think the "place" I found them was in the North / East corner ?You must give the name and place, so we can go a looking.

I agree, have the same feeling when someone hands me a shovel. I tell them, I'm not qualified to operate that piece of equipment.For as much as I like them, I always feel if the big stuff comes out then im on the wrong job
I‘ve got a 24 inch set, only very very occasionally I’ve used it, but stuff gives up when you show it the Stillsons.I agree, have the same feeling when someone hands me a shovel. I tell them, I'm not qualified to operate that piece of equipment.
I couldn't pass the wrenches up though. Better to have them and not need them than need them and have to dip deep in your wallet when you do need them.
Being retired, I doubt I'll have much use for them. I gave the large 36 incher's to my buddy overseas but kept the smaller ones just in case. Will be having a rummage through some containers soon as this weekend we will finally be transferring stuff out of the storage unit, so I might be finding the Weller soldering gun tips for you and @Seadog.I‘ve got a 24 inch set, only very very occasionally I’ve used it, but stuff gives up when you show it the Stillsons.

I just looked on Ebay, I don't think I shall be planning my retirement just yet.Stick them on eBay. I looked out of curiosity a year or so back and they were going for what I’d say was daft money.
