Hi everyone. I’ve just signed up. I’m clearing my late grand fathers shed/workshop out and I’ve come across a lot of machining tools etc. I’d like to sell them on as they are no use to me. Can anyone point me in the right direction to the best place to advertise them? One thing of interest was this gauge block set. It would be interesting to know the value if anyone knows? Thanks

It will be worth more if you can find the missing blocks.

You can advertise in the classifieds on this site, or there are people who clear whole workshops. All depends how much effort you want to put in.

Would be good if you can list a few more of the larger parts and/or take photos. Even a photo of the workshop would give us a better idea of what sort of tools you are talking about.

A few years ago, in a market in Ludlow, I saw a set of Matrix (Coventry gauge and Tool ) for sale at £15..

Not likely to be used every day, ,but a useful item to have, for the times when a measuring tool needs a check, or a dimension needs to be measured using a DTI on a Height gauge.
