Only the Second one I have come across with Vauxhall on it.

I think the vauxhall ones were part of a tool kit, if I'm bored I'll have a look through the 1940s 50s Vauxhall /Bedford parts books to see out of interest

I did that a while back and mis clicked ," fine long point black " result 20 red pens

 

[Memmeddu]

Forgot about those

3 boring bars set with inserts and torx wrench
Then I've bought this cutting torches lot

Left to right
(Fro) Frover handle with 8 welding tips, Fro cutting attachment, 4 flashback arrestors, 2 of them on the handle.
Another Fro cutting attachment, a mestriner cutting torch.
An Harris model 62 in pretty good shape, equipped with check valves and an R63 circle cutting guide specific bushings/nut.
An aluminum Frover handle with a mixing tip cutting attachment in pretty good conditions as well.
A 6290 type cutting tip in the box, some welding nozzles, barbed hose fittings, thrash cutting tips inner cones.
A 6290NX cutting tip, 7 propane mixing tips for the blue Frover but those are the same ones for my Harris model 28 demolition torch or the mujelli mixer I've sold on Monday and many others.
6 genuine Harris 6290NX and one 6290AC cutting tips
Estimated value of roughly 500 euro just for the 20 cutting tips.
300 for the Frover kit
Maybe 80 for the mestriner cutting torch
The Harris 62 goes from 300 to 600 euro brand new and let's say it's 62-3 or 62-4 we are around 150-200 euro for an used one in those conditions.
The aluminum Frover handle and cutting attachment a good 200 euro in those conditions.
Planning on keeping the cutting tips and the Harris 62 but I might sell my other 62.
Everything else is going to be sold
I made a bargain but we have to keep in mind that it'll take time to sell everything I don't need

 

[Craig-SM]

Boxes of 150mm mesh sanding discs and pad savers for a bargain price. Should keep me going for a while.

 

[oldbikedavey]

Mosttly the following : several useful sized chunks of phosphor bronze round bar, and one ditto aluminium bronze, eight total rectangles of hand pad in four different grades, two of each, two long series centre drills of dubious quality, three round and half-round section oilstones for sharpening wood turning gouges, a very fine booklet on Shell Casting that came rom the US, complete with some interesting prices regarding various hovels in Beverly Hills and Bel Air, should I ever wish to rub shoulders with commoners, and last, but not least, two bottles of truly excellent French beers,La Goudale, and Jenlain.
Drinking both would incapacitate a hippopotamus.....

Did someone nick the wheels?

I don't think this model had wheels the handle on top is for carrying it. Its heavy but managable and easier to move around with the top handle than its wheeled cousins

 

[JOEPRO]

This guy wheely took this seriously

I forgot to mention why I've had to buy something expensive to myself.
An half hour before a friend throw up in my car.
Paid his brother 50 euro to clean it up on this morning, because I'm not able to do that without throwing up myself.
While him used to sanitize ambulances so he has seen things human can't understand...or even imagine...

Then went to the local Lidl bought 2 sanitizer and smell remover spray cans for obvious reasons...
Spoiler alert I'm going to contact a specialist to sanitize the car.
My poor little Punto
3 hydrogen peroxide bottles for rust blueing stuff
2 screwdriver set
Got those screwdriver roughly 4 years ago they've been great didn't chip or bent, even rubber still holding up pretty good despite all the greases, oils and solvents they've been through.
They were there so I've bought one set for myself and one for a colleague who told me about him willing to collect few tools to maintain his car.

There are some very nice humans on this rock.

I have had the joy of meeting some from here and other forums, yes they do exist.

Heavier that I would expected.
