Nice scraping on the double V....

Thanks
I'll try to answer all PM's ASAP
Still working at a regular job.
Thanks, take some work to get it hitting on the ends.
Don't really have any machine specific tools or power scrapers.

Wow. Beautiful.
Yes it is. I paid $1,380 for it ten years ago. It's been inside and never really used. I still have the original box for shipping. Like to get $1,000. for it. The bench is just as nice. I want to move everything, so any reasonable offers will be considered.
I hear you. Did you see the price of a new one?

I used to work with an old guy who'd served in the Fleet Air Arm in the 1939-45 war. He served on HMS Campania, which was an escort carrier. They had been equipped with lend/lease Grumman Wildcats. Along with the aircraft they also got plenty of spares and tools etc from the USA. The toolboxes that came over were " Gerstner " boxes.
Get your hankies out now guys - when the time came for the Wildcats to be replaced they were pushed over the side into deep water - and the toolboxes went with them ! My pal tried to buy one but the orders were to throw everything over the side.
Regards Tyrone.

He told me this story was when I was working with him in the early 1970's. I'd never heard of " Gerstner " boxes over here, it was all mainly " Moore & Wright " and some " Starrett ". He'd written to " Gerstner " in the US after the war and they'd sent him a brochure which he brought into work to show me.
He had a tear in his eye when he told me about throwing the boxes overboard.
I believe a lot of this sort of thing went on at the end of the war. It was to protect the home market apparently.
Regards Tyrone.

Ouch. That would be a hard thing to do. All that work just dumped in the water...both the Gerstners and the planes.
