As many of you know I have weakness for collecting antique tools. One feature collectors have an interest in are tools that look pretty, something where someone took extra time to just make it nice to look at. The Studley tool chest is a perfect example. I happen to like fancy knurling and things like wing nuts. Here are a few from tools in my collection I just happened to have photos of with descriptions.
Share some of yours.
Bronze, late 19th c. from a surface gauge
Brass, French, circa 1835, from a rose engine, this is about 3" across
Brass, Swiss, 19th c. from a watchmakers mandrel lathe
Steel, 19th c. from a surface gauge
