And this is "shop clutter"?? What the stuff like that's being kept? You Ontario people have the good'er deals and picks!
This is mostly stuff that I bought in expectation of a bigger shop with bigger equipment and more free time after retirement. The little 4x6 bandsaw was replaced with a 7x12 ages ago. I use my Myford S7b daily but I haven't used the accessories in years. The D1-3 backplate came with a SetTru chuck. And...
 
Do you have pics of the vise castings?
The slide and bottom are ground. Jaws are ground on two sides. The nut is a rough bronze casting. Screw is machined. Base is about 4x10 overall.

I can't figure out how to attach a photo to a PM so in response to a query I have attached a photo of the angle plate here. It has been claimed.

Update to the Model Engineers Workshop magazines:
There are actually about 160 rather than 100 issues. The total weight is about 50 pounds so shipping via Canada Post to Saskatchewan requires two parcels with each costing about $42.78 + HST assuming that I've understood their website correctly and that I can find suitable boxes.
 
In response to several requests for photos of the D1-3 chuck plates please see below. They are about 5-inch diameter and came with a 5-inch Pratt-Bernard 3-jaw AdjustTru and a 5-inch Pratt-Bernard 6-jaw chuck.

What a great time to do some ‘spring cleaning’. IMO those items are the opposite of ’junque’ but that was a good attention grabber :).
I’m guessing this means you are going to attend the meetup. Great! I’ll send you a PM.

I’m hoping others will follow your example by showing (in our classifieds) what you have to sell/trade and then offering to do the exchange at the meetup. This will make for a very successful swap meet and also speed up the process.

I still encourage attendees to simply just bring items to the swap meet. Easy-peasy.
