Cleaning out a basement workshop a bit at a time for a lady I know. Lots of STUFF if you know what I mean. Hardware, assorted lumber (hardwood) don't know how much as it stuck here and there. Old hand tools, an old butcher block workbench with vices with wooden screws about 2" across (hope I find the bench dogs), radial arm saw, bandsaw, jointer, shaper, table saw, wood lathe, metal lathe, and drill press. Simplicity cabinets full of things. OH BOY.....grinders and sanders and couple palm routers. I intend to give a lot of it to my great nephews if they are willing to help as they want to set up their own shops but I am keeping the workbench, metal lathe, and some of the more interesting old Handtools. I was told that whatever I decide it was worth was OK, the widow just wants it gone. I am sure we can come up with a fair price as I am not looking to take advantage of anyone.

Could I ask what brand the metal lathe and drill press are? Some of the old cast iron stuff is pretty pricey these days.

I don't care much about the money ... I just love old tools.
