Getting straight to the point, I am asking all of you to check if you have any info on Roman tools, basicly consisting of drawing/photo with scale and provenance. Perhaps you may have access to a PDF which you could share or link to. I have the Manning catalogue of the British Museum and the St Germain finds book. German and French language is not a problem.
Why do I ask? Well, I am trying to put together an overview of Roman tools ordered by craft, with as many different documented tools as I can find. Totally inspired by a display at Xanten museum showing a leatherworker's shop.
So, please mail me the info at r.p.wimmersAThotmail.com (replace AT with @) and I will be most gratefull.
Theres a thread on Roman tool cats here, the french ones just posted are pretty good:

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
