New e**y lot arrives ...

Post by AshbyCut »

... and I have to say I'm a happy boy.

In addition to a plastic box containing 11 quills, and 22 other various floats from the like of Drennan and and Middy, were these 15 obviously home made balsa and cork examples between 5 ins and 9 1/2 ins, the nearest one to the camera being rigged as a slider, and the next two in weighted as self-cocking. With a little TLC I think I have a bargain ... and all (48 floats) for under £19 inc. p & p.

You've got to wonder... the person who originally made them would probably be amazed that they have ended up being sold :)
