Lots of other nice things in later pages - the 3ton arbor press will be a nice find for someone, and a heavy duty 3d printer.
All much too far away for me to take advantage of.

The mill is a very nice one with the extended knee.

The smart washer - lot 1306 is perfect for someone with a larger shop. It uses an alkali solution to clean and degrease. I think that will go well under 1/3 new.

Smartwasher Fluid is $50-$100/gallon retail?

Here's a couple of the ones I've looked at in the past: there will be similar products available from janitorial supply places in 1 gal increments, usually for a 5:1 or 50:1 dilution factor:

Urnex Five Star PBW (caustic)
CP industries foaming alkaline cleaner
Cp insustries Starbright alkaline degreaser

Well that sucks...... the mill closed at $2300 and then states Winning Bid Undisclosed???
What's that supposed to mean?

Looks like the lathe went for $1600

Oh they just show the winning price IF you watched it. So if you seen it close for 1600 then it went for 1600. The mill also if you seen 2300 then it went for 2300. So quite cheap!
I am too busy right now to get these but at these prices in AB it was a steal!
I mean with fees that mill was like well under 3000 CAD - and it was worth well over 5000

If you are logged in it shows “Bidding Has Concluded”. The auctioneer decided that the hammer price is not to be revealed.
