Thanks for information. I will put these and some other measuring items onto here and eBay. Clearing dads items now he has given up his model engineering

Good afternoon All

Please can you help with what this set is called and does, I think it is for setting up accurately parts? The longest arm is 19.5" long. it is not in its original box.

Good Morning All

Thank you all for your replies and PM,s. I have taken all into account .You have all come up with the thoughts we had. Dad and I will work it through . he is not into making money but just fair deals, I and he are glad he is doing now so he knows he has dealt with it not leaving it to later when it maybe more of a headache. He has enjoyed his hobby the friends made , tasks under taken. the collection amassed.

At the moment For instance I have put a 5" driving trolley on Ebay to test the market. I will also put a home made small watch maker / small part lathe see how that goes. Contacting the dealers and auction houses

Once again thanks all . PM people I will email

Hi

Thanks for reply

We have tried that route. He has been a member of one from the 1960,s. The problem is they seem to want everything for nothing and only maybe some items. We need to clear all in one go. To list all the items would be so vast. And how do we value the items. I do feel it would be the dealer's in the end of no other want. Need someone starting out and wants a whole workshop in one go. In southern England I have it all photographed. Happy to send images

Hi

I have recently acquired this small home built lathe , would it be of use to a model maker or is it for a watch maker?

it works, variable speed with foot switch, has collets

oh how do you add pictures ?

Hi All

My dad now 90 has decided to dispose of the contents of his workshop and locos ( two 5" gauge 0-6-0 tanks both working no current boiler certs) . Which routes do you you think is the best way to dispose of it all. I guess locos separate from the workshop. look forward to advise
