    Down heah in Georgia, a nice bridgeport w Kurt vise sold for $950 at auction yesterday.

    We got a Wells-Index cnc extra. A lot more thou.

    I got a truck. I have been going to auctions lately, getting service work on robotics and cnc equipment.

    Last time I shipped anything to Canada they wanted the actual value in import fees.

    FOR a local HSM'er we got him a Southbend 14 1/2 lathe for $400+40 buyers fee, He gave me $1000 to buy it. I thought he was going to hug me yesterday. The piranaha ironworker went for $6500.. Geeze.. and the steel stock racks went this time for wholesale prices.

    About as much as cost at these auctions is the moving fees.. Several of the machines I bought yesterday they wanted $100 to load them on my truck. I guess today I will build a substantial aframe "Weird" style..

      All you have to do is dig around a little in the Toronto area and you’ll find more used mills then in most places.
      That used equipment publication (forgot the name since I left the area) it had dozens of deals. It depends on what you are looking for of course and how much you are willing to spend.
