I have started collecting Sidchrome spanners as it is a goal of mine to purchase a old wall cabinet and stock with original tools for that cabinet.........any help will be kindly appreciated

Welcome.  Someone here on Tool Talk may know about Sidchrome.  It is new to me.

Don't see them very often here. I think that in my 15 years acquiring hand tools I've only seen and purchased one.

I know very little about them. Our Aussie and Kiwi members will chime in soon.
"The brand emerged when Royston Siddons' Siddons Drop Forgings Pty Ltd turned to tool making to fill post-war shortages after World War II. Original production of Sidchrome tools in Australia was in the Brunswick area in the city of Melbourne, Victoria.

The Sidchrome brand built its reputation with high quality products. Sidchrome up until 1996 were manufactured in Australia, but since being acquired by The Stanley Works (now call Stanley Black & Decker) production is now undertaken in Taiwan."  From Wikipedia

 Thanks for sharing. Those are impressive tools. Have never seen one or heard of them before. Enjoyed the video.

I am glad that you liked the Sidchrome history video, it seems like most of this type of stuff is lost to history forever

Agreed.  The film was great.  I need to hunt up some more.

When I was in France 30 years ago, I saw their truckers in shorts and clogs, but somehow I can't imagine Mad Max in flip flops.

LOL it was pretty well standard uniform in Australia for truckies navy blue Bonds singlet black Stubbies shorts and well we don't call them flipflops .....we call them thongs but then came the do gooders that were paid good money to sit in a office and make up new rules to save us all from ourselves the good old occupation and safety crew, most couldn't knock a red hot nail in a wax dolls bum.so now its hi vis vests made of nylon fabulous in 110 degree heat in Aussie outback
