A good marketplace find 
,, whole box load of made in England tooling , I would say for sure at least 95% is presto , dormer , Clarkson , osborn , SKF and various other brands based in Sheffield
Very happy with it to replace my cheap Chinese milling cutters although I only have a hobby size bench top mill some of them may be a bit too big
The dormer 22mm milling cutter in big blue box is £140 more than double what I paid for the whole lot
Despite being advertised as lathe tools these are the only lathe related bits + a nice kennemetal insert chamfer tool with inserts in 25mm size which I was looking for
Plenty of big blocks of Osborn capital HSS to fit well on my big Colchester althought some braze on tips and other massive bits of carbide that aren't a whole load of use to me unfortunately but it was sold as a whole toolbox so I took it all
There must be quite a few duplicates and tools I will never have a use for so I may put some up here for you lovley lot to share in this what I assume is a careers collection of mill tooling all good quality

Score! Not sure about the Stella though, they could have given you some decent coolant.A good marketplace find

The threaded milling cutters appear to be for Clarkson Autolock Collets, which were made in both metric and imperial sizes.A good marketplace find

Ah great cheers I was wondering what they fit, I have ER32 collets which grip them just fine as the shanks are ground as well.

I bought a set to do mine probably 25 years ago, but haven't done them yet. The trouble is, on a motorway run the car will get low-30s mpg, and I'm reluctant to disturb that.

Suprisingly not the case, easy to use menus come up on the dash..... can be done on the move...... why not? Better than kneeling at the side of the road with spanners, like I said... its the future and why not move with the times...... woudn't go back to carrying bottles of oil and tools waiting for the enevitable breakdown like the good old days

The ES on the Twin constantly adjusts rebound and compression damping to suit conditions in real time, not sure if all ES is like that or not.Suprisingly not the case, easy to use menus come up on the dash..... can be done on the move...... why not?

£8 buy:
All Whitworth, 3/8 die missing, though I have one already, just too large an outside diameter for this set

It's turning out a cracking purchase.
Sure, I was (am) quite happy with the elderly Icoms, but the opportunity to twiddle with this is fantastic.
If I twiddle it just right I can make it sound like a 40 year old IC735, and that's no bad thing.
