Some impressive collections !

I'm not married to the one I have in any way, I've really more of a wood guy then mechanical
If anyone want's to trade for it I'm always looking for wood carving knives, gouges, wood lathe tools...
Also trying to do a Proto Pebble open end set.

Nice!

Here are some of my indices.

Hello, Sudsy . That make more sense on the second one that I posted , the one with the copper highlights . The first one that I posted is different , though , looks like it is a white metal with the black anodizing , considerably heavier as well. Will post more photos tomorrow!

OK, I think I have the photo thing figured out

Seems the site has changed since I last tried to upload a photo
I need to figure this out
It wants an E-mail ?? I've moderated on some pretty big sites for 20 years and have never seen that.

Quote from: lptools on January 14, 2026, 08:24:20 AMHere are a couple more from my collection . The drill index is the same model as the one in the previous photo , also die cast , and I am pretty sure the highlights are a copper flash coating.

I believe they are actually made of high copper content bronze with a black coating on top.
I've had this Cleveland No. 80 sitting on my desk as a paperweight for years. It has a few scratches on it and they show the copper color under the black.
