My brother recently passed away so now I'm going through his workshop and could please use some help with pricing the machinery for sale.
Thanks to all for the feedback on my other post. So here is the "Assistance Needed" Post.
Please remember it is like reading Greek.... do not know what a steady rest, headstock, tailstock, etc. - basically anything.
So based on feedback and since you all know what you are doing, looking to find someone who is near by (located in Suffolk County on Long Island in NY) who can help with in person identification and pricing? Is this forum the place to find a member who is honest and reliable and knows what they are looking at in identifying and pricing the equipment? Could pay the person a couple hundred bucks for the help.
The estate sale for the lower level of the house is in February but it feels like these are more specialty items with specific buyers.
When the time comes, it is LOCAL PICK UP ONLY & MUST bring manpower to move from garage to your truck/vehicle. The good news is most every piece of equipment in the workshops are on wheels, dollies, carts, etc. so they roll but these items are still particularly heavy.
Spent a TON of time taking photos today so below is a link to an album created on Google Pictures with subheadings. Hopefully you can view the album and all the pics.
The following items are included in the pics:
1. South Bend Lathe - 9 inch Model A w/ Bed Length 3 1/2 (On a cart with tons of other stuff?)
2. South Bend Lathe - 9 inch 3 foot bed
3. Starrett Levels - BRAND New (NEVER used)
4. Unknown Equipment Item
5. Clausing
6. BOYAR SCHULTZ HORIZONTAL SURFACE GRINDER 6'' X 12''
7. Pexto Metal Bender (Metal Brake?)
8. Dunlap 1/4 HP Ball Bearing Split Phase Grinder
9. Keller Die Filler Model 1A
10. Machinist Books
11. Fairbanks Ward Metal Cutting Band Saw
12. Cabinet filled with accessories
13. Misc. Stuff???
Thanks so much!!
