Hey Folks!

Apologies if this was already posted; I tried searching here but found nothing.

Not a LOT of large/heavy tooling currently; I find that there tends to be more of the "manufacturing" equip available in Feb/March leading up to the end of the federal fiscal year as teams wind-down or groups get merged.

Current stick-outs that might interest folks (though might be a little far for some!):

* Milltronics Manufacturing Company RH20 Milling Machine in Borden, ON
* Atlas Copco Air Compressor in Winnipeg MB
* King KC-F5212 Foot-sheer in La Baie, QC
* DeWalt D55276 Air Compressor in Montréal, QC
* Older General Drill Press in Montréal, QC

Also lots of misc lots, grinders, wrenches, drills, welding equip, socket sets, tap-and-die sets, storage, and much more.

Often I find some total gem's of equipment thats in need of a little "TLC" and is badly mislabeled. I remember bidding on (and winning!) a Surveying Total Station (sans battery!) back ~15 years ago that was listed as "misc electronics" for under $100. Highly recommend searching for generic teams from time to time or simply checking all auctions "near you": often some amazing deals!

If I see anything else that sticks out to me over the next few weeks; I'll add more comments here!
