Do you have a garden?
That drill must be the bargain of the week!
Of course.
Were else do you think I have hidden the bodies.

I have one for work, a good cheep drill.
But with a 13mm chick it can take a decent drill bit, but light enough to carry up a ladder and use it.

Bingo, its' an explosive head from a harpoon, it has a cup point with 4 small points now chipped off , weighs about 25 pounds, screws onto the harpoon shaft which carried the fold out barbs , whole thing about 8 ft long, the shrapnel from these was picked out of the whale flesh during processing, Ihave seen piles of this alongside the reciprocating steam saws on the flensing ramps in whaling stations, it has been a pub doorstop for many years, nobody there knew what it was,

Bought a box pan folder, was quite cheap so worth a punt. More modern than the Edwards ones but looks well made, blooming heavy.
Whilst I was at it had a look round the blokes garage and found a small had cranked swager.......
...and this was the nicest surprise, a handheld throatless sheer (if that's the right term?) made by Buck and Hickman - an "Ezi-sheer"
Cheers,
MM

Great score you'll enjoy that, I got one of those for a pound at a car show seller had no clue what it was, it's one of the most useful sheet metal tools I have.
Used it yesterday to cut a 6 " flue pipe to register plate sealing collar, perfect circular hole, no dust, noise or distortion, took about 10 minutes.
Works in a vice or freehand on the sheet, there is a clever eccentric adjustment with three pins for different thicknesses of metal.
edit, mines a 'Record' I reckon any name could be stamped on the handles though..

I've got one of those in the shed too. Not quite as refined as yours though. Never actually used it as yet, but collared it a few years ago when someone was having a clearout. It was destined for scrap. Seeing yours, I think some wooden handgrips would be a nice addition to mine.
