"The longest-lived micrometer than can be bought." J.T. Slocomb micrometers and stand, all fully restored by myself. Each mic is between 70-120 years old, and they're all still accurate.ExHempKnight OP t1_j91ngk0 wrote

All the hardware for the stand is original, as far as I know. The wood slats are new, as the stand arrived to me in pretty sad shape. I stripped and repainted the cast iron frames, and polished the nameplate. The rubber bumpers between each mic were dried out and painted over, so I replaced them with pieces of rubber fuel hose.
