Bought this lot a few weeks ago ,I was only supposed to look at lathe :Doh:
I have even had the wife laughing at me when I came back to the hotel room in Florence with a bag of hammers and two fret saws , I was supposed to get two ice creams :lol: :lol: ,I found an excellent tool shop just off the ponte Vecchio selling Hammers ,lathes , furnaces you name it for the jewellery trade in Florence , a real old school shop :dremel:

That is a nice find it is hard to find those hammers here most places carry only the 3 basic ones. And good luck finding a shot bag! Are they filled with lead shot or sand?
RobWilson:
Hi there Tom
The bags are filled with sand , most folk think they are filled with Lead shot ,but if they were filled with Lead shot it would soon just mush into a solid mass after a few whacks with the hammer .Also they would be dam heavy .
Those hammers are not so easy to fined in the UK to that's why I snapped those ones up , but saying that when I was in London last I had a brain fart and thought of Florence ,so I set a course for Hatton Gardens (London's diamond/jewellery quarter ) , there I found a similar shop to the Italian one ( http://www.mealli.it/ ) selling all sorts of hammers and interesting tools , Walsh and sons , like a very nice micro brazing torch .
So look for jewellery suppliers . https://www.hswalsh.com/ London ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, http://www.lacytools.ca/ Canada

Well I'll keep looking I had a 12" bag sewed up for my son but he never filled it, I have been using a stump when the need arises. I will also have to finish off a planish hammer that I machined by taking measurements from exploded diagrams found on the net.
