When Mack Montgomery walks into the shop about 6 pm carrying a box and smiling like butter wouldn't melt in his mouth, there is always an interesting reason.
So he came over my house after work and I took some quick pictures:

These aren't my best photos, but look at these amazing lugs Mack got from Ebay UK. He said the pictures were awful on the listing and he had no idea that this is what he was getting.
The story is the seller acquired them from a man who spent about 35 hours at this set. Nothing else is known. If anyone can ID these, that'd be great and Mack might even post to the list sometime, now that all of you have seen his Holds and his lugs!
There is a bicycle here, just add tubes and brazing, and of course, some serious filing. Even the drop out screws were in the box. If they were mine, which they aren't, I'd send them off to Brian Baylis, have them chromed and built up into a metallic ruby red, British themed modern ride. In my size. Hint, hint.
They are in the album "Mack's Lugs," and since Webshots is a bit slow tonight, should be up for viewing about 30 minutes after this is posted.
Enjoy - even Ray the boyfriend, who walked in on the photo session, thought these were nice...
