This seems to be the main sentiment, but I have made the decision to sell
them.

I am moving near Kennedy Space Center in FL soon. I have decided to sell
my
machines and replace them later, rather than move them, as I have to
build a
shop.

Ron: I think you would be making a huge mistake selling everything off
and starting again. From what I have seen in the way of equipment
available in south Florida, it isn't in real good shape, and if it has
been outside for more than a couple of days, it has a good start on
being rusted up. It would be a heck of a lot cheaper in the long run
to slather everything down with a good heavy coat of grease and put it
in a sea container and store it at the rv storage lot. You can
probably count on spending 3-5 times what you get for your current
tools to replace them and that doesn't include the time and effort
just to locate them or the transportation costs either.

Since we have to move too (theoretically) by the end of the year, I'm
busy packing and crating mine so that we can load the house, the shop
and the hangar stuff in just one day and get it going without a big
fuss.
