Today I acquired...........

[dieselsamurai]

Too right.

I think all the draws and cabinets in my workshop were resuced from the skip or scrapyard , I do bank closesures now and again they always have good stuff

These came from an office i worked in 20 years ago they shut down they were £400 each and they were 2 years old! There was over 200 I had about 20 of them !


Bisleys are stupid money now but I always try to grab them before they get chucked

You and Bob with his Lista cabs. I'm not envious. Honest.

However, I did manage to snag a couple of Bisleys a few years ago from Freegle or something, so I was happy with that. Few and far between, though.

Those old Rolls razors were brilliant once you learnt how not to make bacon with your face.

I've been down in Hereford for a few days and on monday went to saracen tools a very nice shop and acquired a few bits . I could have spent a fortune but resisted

A couple of stronghand clamps and razor blade scraper . The pipe clamp has the two heads removable so can be rigged for other jobs

a couple of couple of cup brushes for the grinder and two SS brushes , they have so much stuff in there you can hardly walk round !
from the old tat/hardware shop in high town a couple of hammer shafts

and lastly this morning some copper plate 75 x 850 x 1.6 ish mm
