Machine Tools any Value?

[Dilkris]

I am working through making my life "smaller" - the below 2 items I have had for some 45 years - and never used them.

Surface rust staining is present on some surfaces, (which I have found removes easily), with all cutting edges on components unmarked and "as new"

The valve seat recutting tools are 30mm to 60mm with 6mm-12mm guides in 0.5mm increments.

I really need them gone somewhere where they will be used - do they have any value in this day and age of modern machining and if so, can those in the know, give me an idea please.

These cutters wouldn't cut modern valve seats,that said there are still plenty of engines out there that haven't had hardened seats installed.

@doubleboost one for you John

The adjustable reamers (last two pic's) are worth something, they look to be of good quality. Have a look on the well known auction site for adjustable reamer sets.

If noone else is interested, I'm interested in the reamers (Reihbahlen) but skint right now!

Oh dear, should perhaps have said those reamers are worthless. I'll offer to take them at scrap value.

Nah, not worth How Much???

Reamers are devalued by the rude hand writing on the box. Probably have to pay to get them taken away now.

Oh I don't know, in this day and age they may fetch a premium.

If sensible price I will have them, the reamers

I think I beat you to it! Depends what's a sensible price though...

You got no money you told us

 

[Dilkris]

Thankyou for all your comments - "Hunger" (Reamers) are apparently of a very good quality and are "out there" for sale at some eye watering prices - this doesn't of course mean they are selling.
I'll clean them up, remove the "Hand Rimmers" sign (thanks Mikes), and advertise them along with the seat recutting tools later today, (in the correct section), as a job lot at a "guesstimate" or "offers" price with hopefully buyer to collect as the 2 boxes are relatively heavy.

I would take the reemers if there were sensible money.

The seat cutters are not worth anything now - as @8ob says modern valve seats are too hard now. You might tempt a classic owner into buying them.

@Dilkris PM me if you got a delivered price for the reemers. OK?

I'm surprised @doubleboost hasn't been on for the valve cutters, with all the old steam valves he's been reconditioning recently.

I bought a set from a forum member .
If not I would have been after them .
