I am curious if anyone has any information they can share on this Enfield Stock Master.  I am asking for a friend who inherited when his pops passed away.  We are assuming it was used in the making of Enfield stocks on a pantograph.  He’s curious if if it’s junk or treasure.  The “normal” stamp is possibly for normal size stock.  Any and all info or insight would be greatly appreciated.  His father was an avid Enfield collector and picked this up at a show many years ago.

Is it made of iron? Looks like it.
Was just reading about these the other day somewhere.
Duplicator equipment being made from iron or some other metal for the shaper master.
I would keep it.

I was told it is all iron and heavy.   Any idea on the numbers and markings?  Curious if we can figure out where or who used it.
