Well some bits from yesterday and some from the week.

The following were sent to me, from a good member here and already been sorted.


Tile cutter is now with a local group of handy people who do small repairs for venerable people.
The Forester bits are being held back from MIS etc, ready to go into action when the ready to use set gets damaged.
The drill case, will get it's own post.
The carboard box and handles have gone to a local charity who collect furniture to be donated to those in need.

The same with the drawer runners and the rest of the cupboard fixings. I was told the legs, hinges and fixings are very hard to find. At a decent price.



I am keeping the file card here, for the job of cleaning donated files.





The above tools are on their way to a local tool charity.

The charity who collect furniture wanted to press money into my hands, I declined.

But They did give me this.

This Drill tin was sent to me.
It was empty, but it was the centre of a lesson today for a friend. He knows about metric drill and imperial sizes. Bit this tin was in the drill size:
"A to Z"
This was new to him.

So out with a Zues book and a box of odd drills.



After an hour.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Yesterday I was given this lot.



Suitable for spares.



Ignore the Zeus book.
A brace of Bit and brace drills.

We have enough of theses, but these are going to be kept.
Why?
The jaw springs and jaws are in very good condition.

 

[awemawson]

So that would be Brace of Brace drills then

Are there a lot of archdeacons in your part of the world?

The Forester bits are being held back from MIS etc, ready to go into action when the ready to use set gets damaged.

Should they not go to the local Subaru club?
