Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself, I'm Lou and very sadly my husband died just over a year ago very unexpectedly. We had not been long living in Herefordshire, he was retired and we built a big workshop so he could enjoy his hobby of carpentry and make new windows and shelving, doors and all sorts for our new home. In October 2022 he bought a charnwood bandsaw and morticer, ready to make our new windows. We had set them up ready in the workshop and just tried them out. He had just purchased lots of timber to make a workbench and storage units for the workshop. By March the following year he was gone.
Im finding it very hard sorting out his tools that he used and loved for a skill that he was very good at.
Eventually I will need to sell some of them. The Charnwood tools are practically unused and have sat in a dry clean workshop since October 2022. I would really like to sell them to fellow enthusiasts and someone who can appreciate my situation and that I do need as higher price as possible. It would be collection only unless very local and then there is a possibility of delivery in a van.
Its an extremely sad situation as we worked really hard to get to here and then its all been taken away with no warning and I have been left in limbo really , at this present time with no idea of what is going to happen. I am more sad for my husband, the fact that he was so looking forward to creating with wood, the hard work building his workshop, the fun we had doing it and the excitement of the future, the fact that he never got to use his bandsaw or morticer he had been waiting years for. So its not just me selling tools, its a whole lot more than that.
I just wanted to explain it , felt the need, sitting here now typing this through tears thinking should I be writing all this, but, thats me, tell it how it is. So far everyone has been so helpful and kind.
So in the hopefully not too distant future I will be advertising some machinery and tools for sale, on here if I am able. If there is anyone in the area of Hereford, looking for any tools, please feel free to get in touch. There are a few other older bits of machinery. Many thanks for reading.
