Hello everyone,
I've got an oppertunity to buy an 81 piece Ford C.E. Johanasson Gauge block set but I'm trying to determine the grade/tolerance to compare to more recent equipment. This will help me decide the value to me and what to offer.
I have faith that this old set (that is is very nice condition!) is of higher quality that a more recent workshop grade B (alt: 3 or AS2 depending on the standard) set, but I want to make sure.
The only apparent information is on the tag: Standard Set No. 1-B, purchased 1944
Is the 1-B a grading? Or is it a product code/set number?
What would the be the lowest grade we could expect for Ford Jo blocks?
Thanks for your quick answers in advance! Wish me luck!
