This collection comprises an assortment of vintage workshop tools and equipment. The lot includes a large multi-tier metal cantilever toolbox, the lid of which features a hand-painted AUTO inscription in yellow above a faded decal for Metro and a Union Jack emblem. A heavy-duty cast iron bench vice is present. A boxed unit, appearing to be a portable air compressor or paint sprayer, features a cream-coloured housing with a red top plate and a grid-patterned vent. A fabric-lined suitcase contains a wide variety of hand tools, including wood-handled tenon and coping saws, various open-ended spanners and wrenches, pincers, pliers with insulated handles, large-gauge drill bits, a wooden mallet head, files, and a large natural-bristle dusting brush. A wooden crate contains a small electric motor assembly with associated wiring and white plastic pump components.
