Hello from Toronto
I have "inherited" a collection of various professional machinist tools (I can legitimize their origin to me).
I've attached a few photos indicative of the kind of things in the collection.
I am an engineer and know the basic functions of these tools (and how much they likely cost new).
What I need to know is if there is any market for these things either here or on eBay etc?
I am particularly interested to know if the cutting tools (which may be "job specific") are likely to be of any use to people or if everyone makes their own?
The Starrett tools have the one-time owners engraved on them (which I understand this is / was quite common) - does this effect their value or is standard in used tools of this type?
All comments / guidance welcome.
