Hi. I just found what i guess is a vintage magnetic induction parallel pair. See pics- They are marked- ”Eclipse type ”A” regd in uk” - on top And numbers ”9098” on bottom (Maybe 8606 but really looks like 9098.. They are a bit rusty so I need to get that sorted out. Measurments are in mm...

Hej Pedder. C I Fall is just across the street from IAC, the company that bought GGC, and You were only a few hundred meters away from Lidbergs old factory. I agree, Have 5 Fall chisels, they all serve no more nobel work than removing glue from joints..
