Welcome Martin!

5 euros for a Spiers coffin smoother - that was a great deal.
If you find any more, let me know.  I will gladly pay postage.

I think I remember a site for someone close to you; he had
a lot of chisels:  http://www.dutchtools.net/ but I imagine that
his stock changes.  (I have no business relationship with him 
other than a customer).

We're glad to have you on the list,
