    Default Hi, I'm after some advice

    Hi there

    My mother has had to recently move out of her house that she and my dad lived in for nearly 50 years.

    As a consequence, I now have the job of cleaning out the house and more particularly, my dad's garage (who passed away many years ago) which still contains his woodturning gear. While his lathe was sold, there are many wood blanks, some tools and general bits and pieces.

    My question - is there a normal way of selling these things? That is, do I put all the wood blanks together or should I try to sell them separately? Ditto for chisels?

    Many thanks for any help.

    Normal way? I think every way has been tried. Do what is easiest for you. If you know what you are looking at, separately would work cos you will have an idea yourself weather a particular wood is rarish of not. But you have to have the time to list 'em all. Or you could bundle a whole lot of little ones together in a number of lots. Chisels, it depends how much tool steel is left, and what type of steel they are. :shug:

    Where? Here is a good place. Packed full of vulchers wanting other peoples shed stashes. Although you gotta put a price on things. Ebay, you just let the market decide. So how much time you got?

    Many thanks for such quick replies.

    It'll take me a week or two to get photos and things listed here (still clearing the house!)
