Had to knock off and do a conversion on another machine as it was needed for a job, will be picking it up shortly, one more CNC conversion and get rid of this beast this week to the scrapyard. Only snag is it weighs about 3 tonnes and I have to move 5 machines to get it out.

Hi John If you are scrapping it can i have the oil can and machine light please :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: John |
| John Stevenson:
You are welcome to the light, keeping the oil can though. Sounds horrible scrapping it but truth is it's worth more for scrap than resale. When I announced I was scrapping it on another forum I got an email saying don't scrap it and if I could get it to Wales the guy would give me £1,000 for it. That's the whole idea not to have tyre kickers all over it. Any idea how much a Hiab truck is to Wales and back ? It's worth about £400 - £450 scrap and I keep the chucks, faceplate, steadies, which with a bit of luck will fetch £150 ? The big Dickson toolpost with 12 holders is worth £250 at least and all I have to do is get it outside, they will collect. |
