"6 station milling machine" with total of 280 HP, not counting two
hydraulic power units.


Oh, jeez. I hope you're not planning to buy it. That's the kind of
machine you used to see in the automobile industry -- 40 years ago.

I already bought it. I hope that it weighs 50 tons.

Yikes, that will take a week or two to dismantle and truck. I know you
have a big building, but can you even fit all that in with the other
stuff you have?

That one goes straight to a scrap yard. I may save a few bits and
pieces, though.

I would think the motors and hydraulic power units would be more
valuable as-is than as-scrap.

I agree with you, especially about the motors. The power units, I am
not so sure, although I would hate to scrap them. The motors are
great, there is a lot of multiples on them. Good for phase converters
or whatever.
