If you wondered why that beam trawler is in the background. The shop was a general store then a ships chandlers,after Lowestofts fishing fleet vanished it went back to a tool and general store.When the pen pushers at Waveney District Council stopped all loading and unloading anywhere near the shop we decided to concentrate totally on mail order,to be honest with car park charges and traffic problems it's probably better for customers too.   We still stock tough,hardwearing foul weather clothing ,souwesters and protective rubber gloves in gauntlet or full length ,gutting and filleting knives and rubber boots for the fishing industry and other trades.If you're a builder,fisherman,farmer,forestry worker orjust working outside in bad weather I can supply clothing suitable for commercial use.I ship anywhere in the world.      You won't find a shopping cart on this site and it isn't all singing,dancing and fancy pictures.I'd rather you mail or ring so we can sort out what will do the job you have in mind,than let you buy something that won't.   I also list hundreds of tools and other items on Ebay you can find them here

    Had an email from a 'consultant' claiming to be from Baconsdozen? Please click here .   Whitworth,BSF,BA,and unf,unc nuts and bolts were widely used when British engineering was still admired and exported worldwide.I sell quality,branded sockets,spanners and other tools to fit imperial sizes for the owners of classic cars,motorbikes and other machinery made when Britain still had  many sizeable car and motorbike makers. Some of these tools are unused but older than you are.I sell and auction modern metric spanners and sockets,servicing and repair equipment etc all under list price but my real interest is in old fashioned engineering,feet and inches and those vehicles and machinery made before planned obsolescence became the norm.I am always looking to buy surplus new and used imperial tools by quality makers,please contact me. ..
