    For Sale Workshop Clear Out Part 2 - Books

    These have been sat in my bookcase for some years now without being read so it's time for them to go off to new owners. Most of these will go large letter postage singularly but some are slightly too thick and so have given a separate price for them. I can combine postage if more than one is...

    Wanted Coronet 3 Lathe Small Tool Rest

    I currently have an additional short tool rest for my coronet 3 lathe that I suspect isn't for my lathe as while it is a good fit it still slips down and seems to be getting worse. This isn't due to dust getting in the banjo slot either. In short I'm looking for a tool rest which has a rest...

    Any ideas on what this might have been?

    A fellow artist dug this up from her garden and gave it to me with a load of other rusty metal objects. One end is threaded and the the hole on the other side is too. Any suggestions?

    Sold Small Amount Of Ebony

    Came across this at a flea market a few years ago and have never used it. I think it was perhaps made by someone practising woodturning but am not 100% certain. It has a small bore at the top, so could have been used for a candle sick (5th photo) I'm pretty sure it's Ebony as it's very heavy...

    For Sale Kirschen Chip Carving Knife Set (4 Knives plus Tool Rool)

    Have had these since new and some have hardly been used as I tend to find myself carving with different tools nowadays. During storage years ago the blades got a little damp due to a leaking shed and so they are in need of sharpening and would say the rust is only on the surface. The knives...

    What the Heck Are These Tools?

    Was offered a box of tools last Saturday by a fellow artist who doesn't work with wood, most were braces and hand drills but am not sure what the ones below are. Am wondering if they are something to do with wire at all?
