Have a power distribution shaft from an old workshop. 1-1/8 inch diameter by 18 feet long. Has wooden belt pulleys. Was driven by a rather large 1-cylinder gasoline engine (long gone). Any value here? SE IN

machine shop might like to have the shaft and the wood pulleys may sell as antiques.

As noted, Line Shaft. County fairs and steam shows with housed machine shops might like it, value is negotiation based with those that will discuss it. Donations can be deductible. Jim

Find your local "engine show" or "steam pageant" and that will be your market. It likely won't have much value if any but they can use it for parts.
