York Auction donations!

No problem with parking during the School holidays Bob.
All the old cars in the car park, usually belong to the staff!
All the bright shiny new ones belong to the sixth formers, though they often have the odd dent, usually highlighted in the same colour as the car they are "parked" next to

I'm ott about my motors and always park in the furthest corner away from everyone else to my wifes disgust as it makes her walk a long way with the shopping So mine will be the one parked in the bike sheds with cones and barrier tape around it.

The Cherry R/B pen some of you liked

One of my home made carbide top tools

There are also about 10 ordinary ball point pens but I don't think any of you will be interested in them seeing as you make your own
I'm hoping to do some vases as well and will show them as and when

Thanks Doug.

Feeling Guilty

I have just not had time to do much in my shed and feel guilty that I have not yet made up the Roman Harvest I promised for the donations.
So just in case it don't get done.
Here is something I have never used nor do I see the need for, I am very happy for it to go to someone who will use and appreciate it rather than sit on a shelf gathering dust, as it has for the last millennium.
Not sure how this auction works Neil, do people pay you and I send it to them or do I bring it on the day for you to auction off??????



A set of mini cole jaws never used only assembled once and saw they were to small for my needs.
Still in the original box, though it says read manual before use I am not sure there ever was one but if there was it's missing.
Does anyone read manuals?

 

[Neil Lawton]

Thank you Brian.
Bring them with you, I might put in a bid for them myself

Anyone who is coming should bring their donations on the day, if possible.
If not, then post a picture in this thread, so I can print it out and assign a lot number.
You can send items to me if you wish, or like Buckeye, keep it and post it to the winning bidder after the auction.
I have a friend coming to take photo's during the day, so a newsletter item can be put together, it would be good to have a table full of stuff to document your generosity.

We do have a fantastic amount of stuff to sell, by my count Woody alone has donated 18 items

I haven't finished documenting everything yet, but I'm already up to 27 lots!
Unfortunately I only have one advance bid so far. If anyone computer literate, who has the time, could help by placing the lots in a public shared area that I could link to, to get a wider audience, please let me know. Your help would be most appreciated.
Onwards and upwards,
Neil.
