No, not tooling from the Titanic!

[Nick Clarke 3Participant @nickclarke3]

Doing some tiding up and decided to empty one of those red plastic crates that are used to 'keep things tidy' and found, amongst other stuff these:-

Amongst all the other stuff were some bits I had picked up cheap from somewhere and an aerosol can of paint (unused) and a bottle of drain cleaner/brazing pickle (ditto)

The cleaner had burst, the aerosol had corroded through and the bits and pieces slightly corroded. Total loss these, the keys for the lathe tools, 4 end mills and a cheap pair of electrical nippers.

I think they must have been in there since the last Bristol Show as there were also the two sets of the miniature laser cut spanners I bought off the Blackgates stand – but these being stainless the grot just washed off under the tap and are fine.

The tool holders may be reclaimable, if the screws will come out. The tap might be OK for chasing threads if it happens to be an uncommon size and you need it.🙂 There again, they may well have been cheap chinese anyway.
