Couple milling machines

My shop has a couple of milling machines for sale, they are a little on the large size or I would have bought one myself. Shop is located in Saint John, NB

The first is a knee and column machine made in Denmark, works well and comes with some cutters. $500

The second Is a Kearney and Trecker, with rotary head, DRO and newly installed gears for the spindle feed. This is a heavy piece of gear, everything is cast iron. $2500.

It took a lot of restraint not to bring home the little knee and column machine, It works well and there is a cabinet full of cutters and a another arbor support to go with it. I just don't have the room. There was a vertical head for it but I think it was mistakenly thrown in the scrap bin.

Arbor == 100 CAD. Head for it - at least $500. Cutters, say few dozen == 300. Machine probably well over $1000. Just go on eBay - especially the vertical heads are very, very expensive.
