Great hard to find level for the collection or to use. There will not be any Best Offer on this item, I’m not Monty Hall and this isn’t “Let’s Make A Deal”……

Really cool way to display a Trepanning 3 bit lathe tool. I imagine someone retired from the trade and this was gifted to them as it is mounted on a bronze board. As always, if you have any questions, just ask!
