Picked these up hoping I could fabricate a tail stock collet system for my Wade 8a lathe. Unfortunately, my idea was flawed. (Had to try it though. ;)).
Now I'm left with 34 +/- collets of various sizes and a closer. No draw bar. Before I pack these away, or trash them, any ideas, advice, other uses?
Thanks for your time.

 
I have some 2MT to ER25 collet holders that I use to hold 5/8" shank turret tools (die heads and Quick knurling tools) in my Hardinge tailstocks.

I suppose there is not a lot of demand for B&S screw machine collets these days.

Probably not and I hate to throw out decent tooling. However, I'm space challenged. Thus the recycle attempt and situation I'm in now.
