Fix from these tradesmen (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

set

'fix' is the definition.
(I know that fix can be written as set)

'from these tradesmen' is the wordplay.
'from' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'SET' can be found hidden inside 'these tradesmen'.

(Other definitions for set that I've seen before include "Fix; lay" , "Prepared" , "Sink below the horizon" , "Fixed; collection" , "Major segment of tennis match" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
