    Vintage measuring tools, What are they worth??

    hi,

    I got these off my aunt, when my uncle passed away a few years ago he used to be a machinist and tool maker. I'm a CNC Mill operator and my aunt knew this and passed them on to me along with many other tools, just these are no use to me and collecting dust.



    A. Capp & Son LTD .001" Verdict dial gauge, and The L.S.Starrett Co. Athol Mass. USA No 456-A Gear Tooth Vernier.

    I looked on eBay and there is not a Gear Tooth Vernier on eBay UK.

    Thanks in advance for your help,

    PHiRe(James)

    As far as the gear tooth caliper, you could look at what the price is in the Starrett catalog. Divide that in half and you should be close, assuming yours is complete. They are still available today with no noticeable difference. At least that's my opinion. LOL

    add: There's a used Starrett on e-bay for $320 USD List price is $1320 USD
