i was at an auction about 14 years and they were selling the whole milking system minus the bulk tank and sinks. scrap guy got the tank for about $10. i got a sink for $15 scrap guy got the other sink for $10. the auctioneer was selling the rest of the milking setup as a lot. I went in the parlor just out of curiosity. he couldn't get a bid. I bought it all for $5. 2 vac pumps, one surge one delaval. about 50 ft glass pipepline. some SS line, surge electronic controller. 4 surge milkers (very early pipeline) that were basically like an old belly milker with a glass bowl still used a strap to hang them on the cow, an old in sink automatic milker washer, vacuum set up for the bulk tank (system actually pulled vacuum thru the bulk tank (sealed) instead of a collector jar/pump), over the cow straps and some misc stuff. sold 95% of it on ebaay.
some of the smaller glass pipe (elbows ect) went to Vermont/new Hampshire for maple pipelines i suspect. a local guy bought the larger/longer glass pipe. Don't recall what he was gonna use it for. Not dairy if i recall. a couple smaller pieces went to city addresses. not sure i want to know what they might be used for.
had a few pieces of SS pipe, elbows clamps. all sold and got good $. seems like the clamps went pretty high $ if i recall. that was back when ebbay fees were reasonable.
sold parts from Vermont to Washington state and Oregon to Texas to Michigan to North Carolina. pretty much the whole country. Was kinda interesting to see where it all went.
