Lucky enough to have a friend who did some work for a liquidation company. All the equipent was bundled onto pallets and you just did secret bids on each one. I bid on three but got only one. My one was labeled Computer equipment and contained mostly IT hardware. Amongst it was this QC10 thing.

Not sure if this is comon practice or I just happened to be at the right place at the right time.

The liquidation company buys everything (including the kitchen sink (Im sure I saw it on a pallet ) ). then they advertise the sale and you bid for what you want. Because its a secret auction you dont know what youve won until the end.

Anyway, I found some info on the Qc10 ballbar, and it is some sort of calibration tool for big CNC machines. Still dont know what to do with it though.
