Big auction Thursday
Haven't been to a good auction for a while. I like it for the theater as well as for the deals to be found. When you get two people bidding for a $30K piece of equipment, it is a lot of fun to watch the interplay between them and the auctioneer.
Well,
CNC Machining and Fabrication of Kirkland, WA is throwing in the towel and auctioning off their shop. Lots of nice big iron there but I am interested in tooling, a good vice or two and anything interesting that might catch my eye. The big CNC systems are around $300K each so it will be interesting to see what they go for (and watching the people as they bid on them!).
My other favorite item at auctions is that, with any industrial facility of this size, there was a person whose job it was to keep things running. The lots in that area are great as it is a lot of small parts and electronics that are perfect for my interests and these frequently go for pennies on the dollar. Cheap fun!
