I guess I can call it a delivery since I delivered it to me.
At a local auction I was able to pick up a few things. When I bought my mini-lathe, they guy I got it from threw in a bunch of tooling. Bits, hold downs, jacks, chucks and some other things. Unfortunately the keys that were with the chucks were rather useless since someone ground down the centers. Then I saw, and won, this:
I have more dial indicators than magnetic stands, then I saw, and won, this:
and this:
The indicator is dirty and missing the lens so I'll have to look at some of Bob's posts on how to clean it and make a new lens.
One of the Starrett stands has a non working magnet switch so I'll have to open it up. Probably a piece of the magnet chipped off. The one with the yellow base and lever sticking straight up is frozen, so that will take some tlc as well. The rest work fine.
Then there was something I've always needed, but never could cough up the cash for...
A couple missing, but a couple of extras.
That's it. About $150 for all of it.
