Hya all at UKW 🤩

[I'm Alfies Daughter]

Hya everyone..
I've come on here for some help if possible. My father sadly passed away last October. He had lived with me for the last 5yrs..leaving behind a huge hole in our hearts along with a lot of beloved belongings..and a shed full of gizmos and gadgets. Some I know what they are but most..I haven't a clue. He loved wood turning and had done so for about 30 yrs before his sight deteriorated..he has had several lathes and lots ofnother machinery,bits n bobs. I would really appreciate some help in identifying what some of the items are and if they are worth selling on.
I've read a lot of the threads etc and youz all seem like a right canny bunch.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Sorry for your loss.

Perhaps you could post a few pictures of items so members can give some general advice.

Thank you so much. I'll get them photographed as best as possible(hopeless at taking pics) and post them. I'm not sure which section to post them in..just on this thread or General woodworking etc?
Thanks again for any help

I’d suggest just posting them on this thread so you don’t need explain the circumstances again.

If you also say where in the UK you are (there is more than one Ashington) you may find a nearby member who can assist.

Welcome to the asylum and my condolences.
Do you not fancy having a go at woodturning yourself?

Thanks so much for your message..kind and funny.
I'm no woodturner though..I do love wood items and definitely loved everything my dad put his hand to..but I couldnt do it.
