Machine tools found!

Cast your mind back to late October of last year. I know it seems like a very long time ago, but that was when Martin solved The Mystery of Uncle Peabody's Machine Tools. A mystery that was first discussed even further back in time, in May of last year!

Martin reports that he recently purchased a complete and unopened set of those machine tools. 






He generously allowed me to post his pictures so we could wrap up this little bit of E. L. Moore esoterica.

The machines look well molded, although they seem to have a little flash that'll need trimming. Overall though, they look pretty good considering they're likely 50 to 60 years old.

  1. They look fabulous and hghly detailed, a lot more than a set of metal castings of a set of machine-shop tools I have seen recently.
