Shutting our family owned machine shop down. Check out Kiko auctions. Our auction is slated to begin October 14th. They come in this Thursday to start tagging everything for the listing. There's a teaser on their website. (picture of a Fryer CNC mill in Hudson, Ohio). Bargains to be had.

FWIW, if an auction service is tagging the items, watch carefully for tooling and parts to wind up in boxes/lots separated from the machine. We've often gotten a lower price on a stripped machine by being able to recognize the auction company put the necessary tooling in the wrong place. On-line bidders don't have the opportunity to poke through all the odd lots.

I've tried to keep all the tool holders and manuals on the machines themselves. Thanks for the heads up. I'll have to keep an eye things being tagged.

Everything tagged. There were a few weirdly placed lots. I got sidetracked with lot descriptions so I missed some of where things were going. No idea when the catalog will be released....especially with the auction starting next Thursday. Happy hunting

Last two days. Some of the items have a penny bid. Serious deals to be had. If you find something you like and need it shipped PM me. I can work something out. Provided it's a smaller lot and you pay for shipping.
