Vintage tools







I got the lot for 15 euro
Low value of exchange
But high value of use

Nice haul! Good for measuring top dimensions.

Jim, you are always on it.  Love the vintage tools.

(and with this post I will now have the last response in the six active categories on itopspin.com.  That’s better than a grand slam.  Bigger than the pentagon.  As many wives as Henry the eighth!)

Jim, The inside spring calipers are worth the price alone. I have been looking for a pair for years.  Congratulations on the find!.

Jeremy, Does the forum need a new category for sage philosophy? :)
