There is a fellow in Dubuque that made fancy railings. The poor fellow is 54 with stage 4 colon cancer. So he had an auction today to sell his business and excess personal stuff.
I have played around with machine tools at different times in my life. I always wanted a Bridgeport Milling machine. He had a pretty nice one on his sale.
So I went mainly just for that mill. They had 5-6 wagon loads of stuff. The tooling sold on the wagons. So I bought his set of collets. Plus a bunch of end mills and milling cutters. Ended up with a bunch of drill bits with tapered shanks that will fit a Bridgeport with an adaptor.
Ended up getting a Avey drill press, a Covel surface grinder, CNC turning center, and another two stage air compressor.
The Bridgeport brought three times what I have been seeing them sell for. A younger fellow was bidding on it and I finally just let him have it. It was setup for single phase. He has one that is setup for 3 phase that he wants to sell. I may go and look at it.
So once again I go an buy a bunch of things I did not really need and did not get what I really wanted. LOL It will take two more trips to get it all hauled home.
