Wow, reckon that's a great good score there. Congrats!

So cool.

I have a 1950s or 1960s Diamond catalog that may list the spare parts.  I will try to remember to check it tomorrow.  My wife hates it when I tromp up the steps to my library/collection room when she is trying to sleep.  No, I cannot do it quietly; I tromp everywhere.

You are in luck (like you weren't already getting such a great find).  My 1967 catalog shows the cabinets on page 4 and lists all the parts and part numbers.  You could buy the Diamond parts  or the Diamalloyparts, and you could get the assortments in a cabinet or pasteboard box.  Send me a PM with your address, and I will send you a photocopy of the page.

I will try to post the pic of the page here later, but I am in the middle of a large tool cleaning project.  I bead blasted 20+ boxes of tools yesterday (about a half a ton; I think it is a new record for me).  I am getting ready for a tractor show in July in NC.
