So I live in a machining wast land and am at the best a novice machinist.About 2 years ago I heard about a guy that had some machining tools etc for sale. I was just barely into this as a hobby and really didn't know what I needed but I wound up buying about $100 worth of things got a good deal but not a great one.
A few weeks ago I called and asked if he still had anything left he basically had everything left from his dads tooling, he had been a machinist for Lockheed Martin I think. I looked at what was left and decided that I needed to rescue it plus I really wanted some of it here are some pics of the hoard
I think I made out pretty well some is so-so and others I'll leave up to you Paid as total of $275.
3 Teclock .001-1"
1 Peacock 2" .001
1 Federal .0001
1 Interapid .0005 TDI
1 Alina .005 TDI
1 Mitutoyo
1 Mauser
1 Tesa ( all 6")
2 Mitutoyo 2-3 and 3-4
1 Tubular Co. 4-5
Lufkin Depth gauge
Sine Bar 6" (may be user made)
V blocks only fair condition
Rover angle plate set
angle block (user made?)
Peacock 12" caliper
Dietzgen drafting set
Albrecht 1/2 key-less chuck
Rohiti 1/4 " "
slitting saw arbors ( actually there are 3)
Criterion Boring head 2"
Fly cutter 2 1/4" (maybe user made)
2 sets of parallels
1 B&S 1/2"-3/8"-1/4"
Most are in good to excellent condition. There is one bummer though I need a 1-2 micrometer and that one wasn't there.

Well with a heads up on an Ebay deal I got from ddickey here(thank you!!!), I got a deal on an ETM brand ER 40 collet and chuck set for 135 bucks plus shipping. I also bought an D1-4 ER40 collet chuck so I can use it on the lathe as well.

Today i stopped by a local hardware store and bought this long concrete drill, on the way back stopped by a local machinery seller, no new machines but he clean up the place little and i find and bought this depth micrometer its a big one 500mm, it has some rust stains but is still usable, unexpected but nice tool for the shop.
