Two quick questions:

1. What is this?

2. Does anybody want it for the cost of the postage or free if collected from north London. ( it is quite heavy)

I reckon its a reference flat used when scraping a surface. Bit like a small surface plate for small areas or weaker fitters.

Thank you, but you may keep it on this occasion! Could be good quality cast iron though…
