They depict two machines, lots of pictures from the auction to wade
through.

Each weighs perhaps 2,500 lbs total.

I am trying to decide if I should scrap and part them out right away,
or try to market them as usable. If I scrap them, I get my shop space
and my money back right away and have the circulation system, EDM
parts and boards on shelves. They have electromagnetic chucks and a
lot of other useful stuff.

On the other hand, they seem to be too good to scrap and maybe there
would be a buyer. So. My question is, are they hopelessly obsolete?

Dang. Love to have one at work. I hate getting broken taps out by
tornado milling them. Do you know if they work? Might be able to get
owner to buy the blue one. We're in Grand Haven, Mich. We'd pick up, or
send a truck, if I could talk them into it.
