Back to the Bob cave Robin.
A very very old sheet metal bender.
Bloke managed to get it on a pallet for me. Arrived today safe and sound but too dark to see it properly. Looks like it will need quite a bit of fettling
I don't know what that circular ratchet is for - not connected to anything.
Here it is before palletising.

No it's a Barhope. Very old possibly ww1 vintage.
Amazing patina on it.

I’d give that a very light clean up and wipe over with oily rag.
Place in front room and admire every day

I would probably do something like this: https://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/threads/fox-universal-trimmer.57975/
(skip to the end
)Wait, what? Where's all the finished pics. I need to find the other thread about this thing.
Hmm, not this one either: #1611

Never seen anything like it.
By my calculations, that's £2k right there!
I hope there really is 5m on that roll, just need to work out if it really will fit anywhere sensibly. It's not as if I can pop down to Wickes and pick up another.

Get a contrasting colour and use that for a statement, behind a bed or the throne etc
