Will be interesting to see what these go for. Some of the bigger machines (horizontal machining centres etc) are only usable by large industrial users, so will have a limited market, whereas the smaller VMCs will probably cause more intense bidding and higher prices and even the old Colchester may end up costing someone a bit of a packet after the commission and tax are added.

If you have an HSK spindle, you could pick up buckets of toolholders for a song by the looks of it. If I lived locally, I'd be tempted to bid for some of the scraps - but there again, the Domestic Manager would probably hand me my gonads if I did....
