What did you pay for alladat?

A lot!

Still being coy??
Sheeit, we ARE your 24/7 bidniss/tech consultants, so you SHOULD divulge
details.....

100,000# at 10c/# (retail) would be that place's expectation of scrap
payment ($10K), less what they'd have to pay to bring it to a yard. *So
if
you paid $10K, you paid waaaaay too much. *$5K would proly be too much.
Well..... * am I getting close?? * LOL

But the parts value could be considerable. *Old motors, tho, were not
renowned for efficiency. *New Baldors (and others) are topping 98%
(claimed)
effic -- ackshooly, for quite some time now..

I paid 6k.

Scrap yards pay me 290 per short ton, and with this much I hope that I
can get 300/ton.

There is steel, copper wire, electrical controls, valves, hydraulic
power units, and motors, among the sellable parts.

You should do alright.... *proly not a windfall, but still worthwhile..
Depending on how you handle "parts", tho, you might have some of those for a
while.
Thank gawd for ebay....

If I had the money, space, I'd put alladis in a "manufacturing museum".
Lord knows, Merka already needs one.....

It is not really that good for a museum, it is not like steam punk or
some such. There is nothing remarkable about this, except the size.

What's remarkable is that when asked a simple question, like what you
paid for a piece of equipment, you feel the need to play games. I've
always noticed that those who have worked their ass off to gain skills
and who have real talent are more than happy to answer direct
questions and share anything they know because they realize how hard
they had to work to gain those skills. This is in direct contrast to
people like you who have very little in the way of mechanical skills
and haven't or refuse to pay their dues. People like you tend to play
games and hold back pertinent information as long as possible.
