had a few ducks fly in to roost today..

First up - Luckhaus & Gunther rebate  - from the scarce amount of info I have
found to date, no later than 1941 I believe….if anyone can elaborate, I’d be
grateful.

alas the bits are not original, but fit well and will make the tool quite useful
I think..

Finally, J.W. Jones 1892 Patent Reversible Spiral…. the first to be patented I
believe (patent #470055), according to Clifford Fales' brilliant site..

..just need the 1892 Howard and 1874 Allard to go with them….  …could be a long
wait, especially for the Allard :-)

…mind you I thought I’d got myself  an S.F. Bowser this week,  but the vendor
had already sold it and not updated the damned page ….!
