I have an LS Starrett 454 vernier height gauge, 18". See the box label below. I have many questions. 1) The box shows "Without Attachment H". So...not having any old Starrett catalogs...what is attachment H? 2) Label also say "1 ONLY". Curious if that has meaning. Anything to do with the...

Hi All, Yesterday, My 6" Starrett Dial Caliper bit the dust. The spring & shoe that keeps the dial body tight against the beam slipped out of the body? Not sure why it happened, it wasn't dropped, they just started to come out while I was using it. I bought it new about 27 years ago, it has only...

So, I broke my Lenox bandsaw blade on my portable bandsaw cutting 3/4" steel stock. No problem. I replaced it with a Starrett blade which I've heard good things about and wanted to try anyway. Well, it cuts very, very well. It's much faster than the Lenox blade. The downside is the thing...

grade 0 or 2 looking to trade for a lathe or mill. This set retails for something stupid like 3800$. I'm not delusional and think it's worth that but it is worth a 10- 12" lathe or a good bench top mill. Pics will have to be emailed. So if you're interested please email me.

I'm not sure how many (if any) are interested but I had some spare time tonight and photographed some of the items I have found at car boot sales over the past few months. Wanted to list them out anyway for my own reference so thought I could share. Will add a bit more to the descriptions etc...

Just picked up a 174 tap handle for $1. I believe the smallest handle they make. it was missing the threaded side of the handle. Can someone give me the size of the screw, and TPI please. Would like to make a new handle. A pic would be great too, if you could. Thanks Jeff.
