Having collected tools for over 35 years and recently being left a considerable collection of tools I thought I should begin a website about the collection.

Good to see Richard’s tools in safe hands, and the beginnings of a very useful website. Please keep up the good work,

I have come into possession of a wooden mallet with a cylindrical wood head. On one end of the head is a brass disc on which steel pins are arranged in the shape of a crown. It appears that this could have been used for perforating paper or wood with a crown by Customs officers. Have you ever come across a similar tool please as I am trying to establish it’s former use.
