Condition report:
The collection is in poor, unrestored condition, appearing as a barn find lot. There is significant surface rust and pitting on all ferrous metal components. The wooden handles and stocks show heavy wear, grime, and staining consistent with age and workshop use. The vials in the spirit level appear intact but are obscured by dust. The operational status of the mechanical tools, such as the drill and adjustable bits, is unverified and they will likely require cleaning and lubrication.
