19th Century Antique Carpenters Tool Box

19th Century Antique Carpenters Wooden Tool Box This is a great carpenter's tool chest. It is very well constructed, and in great condition. It has three sliding trays. Each tray has multiple dividers and additional sliding trays within the different trays or drawers. You could send years filling this box with treasures.

This box measures approx. 40" across the front. It is dovetail construction. It has rolling casters under it. The two top panels on the lid are covered in leather. A super antique tool chest that looks great in our living room, but even better in yours.

19th Century Antique Carpenters Work Bench This carpenter's work bench is approx.. 6 1/2' long and 2' deep. It has working vices at both ends. The one on the left is 18" wide. On the right the vise wraps the corner. The base is original and mortise and tenon construction. The top lifts off to make moving it easier. The only apology is the missing rods to operate the vices.

Sargent & Co. 1894 Catalog Good overall condition on the interior. Some damage to the outer binding hinge (taped). Super illustrations. Sargent's main focus at this point was Hardware including door knobs, locks and associated hardware, more than tools and planes. There are plenty of them as well as a full line of other tools and general line of household goods from the era. Well over 1000 pages. While the cover says 1894 there are added inserts and updates including a "new" price list for pics and hoes dated 1899. A wealth of information and history.

Boley Leinen Watchmakers Lathe w/ Accessories Boley Leinen is a well known and respected German maker of watch makers tools, lathes, and accessories. Their lathes are considered by many to be the Rolls Royce of Watchmakers Lathes. This example is in virtually new unused condition. The box seen is original and marked with the company name. All of the additional pieces in the first pic are included and do not fit into the box, and do not have a box of their own. I do not know the specific names of many of the pieces or their function. We will let the pics tell that story.

Jaques held several patents for machinist tools and micrometers. See pic for dates. Different & Nice!!

Frictionless Metal Co. Collection The Frictionless Metal Co was based in Richmond VA and made Babbitt bearing metal

for use in large machinery prior to widespread availability of ball bearings.

What I am offering here is a collection Frictionless Metal Co. pieces assembled over the years by a collector of levels. One of the products Frictionless Metal Co put out were small decorated advertising levels produced for them by Starrett. They are considered hard to find. They are on the left below 2 examples of the product they made, Babbitt ingots.

Buying one level probably lead to the start of this collection which includes two Babbitt ingots, 2 of the levels, 2 blotters, numerous used letter envelopes with advertising graphics, a 1901 poster calendar, and the very rare good luck horseshoe advertising clock seen in the last pics. The clock is not working. Check all the pics.
