The only thing missing is the original box! This "The L S Starrett" #271 series "V Blocks and Clamps" is 100% complete with the clamps and frequently missing 6 inch steel rod (not shown in pictures) It is completely ready to use.
The set is in excellent, lightly used condition. There is no rust, no significant dings, no chips or breaks.
To maintain their accuracy, Starrett manufactured these in numbered pairs. These are matched, numbered pair "0393"!
Know as 1-1/4 inch capacity "V" blocks, they are made of "case-hardened steel and may be used either singly or in pairs". A feature of the 271 series is the 6 inch steel rod (not shown, but perfect) "which passes through each block and is firmly held by friction bushings to keep the blocks in alignment when used in pairs and holding them both under work".
Note there are two grooves on each side for positioning the clamps. The clamps hold work up to 1.25 inches in diameter and the large "V" is about 13/16ths inches and the small "V" about 13/32nds.
Please take a close look at the sharp pictures to see for yourself whether I have described it correctly. Then, decide what it is worth. They sold originally for over $65. Why buy a new set when you can get almost the same, but much cheaper here?
Sellers Conditions:
I am truly sorry. In a very dictatorial manner, Ebay has ruled that no one can sell on their site and allow payment via check or money order! I am left with no alternative. If I know you, or if you are known to the tool fraternity, and you don’t like this policy, let me know by contacting me.
NOTE THIS:
· Your Payment must be made within 7 days of the end of the auction;
· I do NOT charge any handling or extra packaging fees, only actual shipping cost based on weight and distance as given by the USPS or in some instances UPS;
· I ship FAST – usually within 1 Business day upon acceptance of payment;
· I strongly recommend insurance! Buyer pays the actual insurance cost if desired - and If you choose not to insure the item, you assume all risk of loss/damage and it does happen!
· I will combine shipping charges, where I can, on multiple auctions won. Remember, the post office offers the “Flat Rate” box Priority Mail option.
INTERNATIONAL Bids require prior approval!
· INTERNATIONAL bids MUST contact me using eBay messaging BEFORE bidding to establish whether it is possible to ship the item to your location and to establish the estimated shipping and handling costs;
· Note that USA Customs forms will be accurately filled in and may require your telephone number;
· All International bids MUST be paid with PayPal.
Please note that I originally purchased most of my items for use. They can be old and may not be in perfect condition, so please ask any questions before bidding. I will try to answer any questions. I always place a sharp picture(s) of the actual items up for bid and give the best and most accurate description I can. Unless stated otherwise, all items are in working condition. Still, what you see is what you get, so look hard and ask questions. There are no returns as I am not a store; rather I am a general eBay user selling my personal stuff.

THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AND BIDDING!
