Those old Rolls razors were brilliant once you learnt how not to make bacon with your face.

I've been down in Hereford for a few days and on monday went to saracen tools a very nice shop and acquired a few bits . I could have spent a fortune but resisted

A couple of stronghand clamps and razor blade scraper . The pipe clamp has the two heads removable so can be rigged for other jobs

a couple of couple of cup brushes for the grinder and two SS brushes , they have so much stuff in there you can hardly walk round !
from the old tat/hardware shop in high town a couple of hammer shafts

and lastly this morning some copper plate 75 x 850 x 1.6 ish mm

Saracen tools nice guys and a great shop. Demo'd a few machines to their customers, they used to be an esab distributor.

Me cousin's got a garage/test center in hereford , most of his gear came through saracen and he knows the owner fairly well . They've got a few different brands now and some cheapies too. Got some extra discount on the metabo bench saw I bought some time ago . Youv'e got to walk sideways around the place a couple of times to make sure you don't miss anything it's crammed to the roof literally .

I understand there are no pockets in a shroud, so spend and enjoy it while you can.
