Nice! Somebody has been busy!

Picked up a few things at a swap meet yesterday: 6” Kurt vise for the mill, Starrett 0-6” blade depth mics, 5C collets, Jacobs No3 17/32” drill chuck, and a $5 tackle box full of tools. Inside the box, I found a nice set of Craftsman small hole gages and some old sockets and wrenches, some of which are from the 1930’s.

No, but I have a tailstock from a dividing head that is adjustable for height & tilt that will work.
