I screwed up not giving members a heads up on a central Ohio auction today

[Scruffy]

I’m not a machine dealer, but should have been today. Clausin. mill smaller than Bridgeport perfect con. 650.00. Millerite mill 700.00 beautiful, 10 in south bend lathe that I would have licked 500.00, atlas 7 in shaper would have Putin’s my living room 550.00.
Had the money ,8 miles from my home, could have easily moved.
Sorry scruffy ron

Man, you should be flogged. If you are going to any more auctions let me know for sure. At those prices I would pay a 50% finders fee and be ecstatic about it.

Here’s a little of what I did buy. Broach set’s are DuMont, level is starrett.
