    Default Mercer dial indicator

    Here is a nice looking indicator which may just need a clean to fix a sticky plunger. It has only 1/2 hr. to run, and is on U.S. eBay, - apologies for the short notice

    I have a couple of Ebay indicators that are sticky. Sticky because the shaft is bent. You would be better off looking for one where the seller states that it is in good working order. Stiff postage on the Mercer too.

    However, I contacted the seller and he has no idea what it's for and what tooling goes with it. He said it was left behind by a past tenant who abandoned several machines in lieu of unpaid rent.
    He suggested I come and visit see what parts might go with it...
    I might leave that to someone else to investigate.
    I think it will be cheap.
    It weighs over 1000kg and the small pedestal grinder weighs about 200kg!

    You and me both Joe.
    The only machine I still want to get is a T&C grinder*, but it needs to be small (something bench top size) - that Makino is not going to fit. I'm looking at redundancy at the moment but when I find out how much that's worth and get another job I'm hoping that there's enough left over to do what you did to find a shaper. There must be a small T&C grinder somewhere out there at a realistic price...

    *all the other machines are optional. I can stop buying machinery at any time - honest.

    Some very nice looking gear there Richard, but did you see the pallet loads of lathe and mill spares besides all the separated tooling, in other lots - you would need to have some inside assistance, or at least be there yourself to find all the bits that went together. I will never understand how that sort of incompetence can proliferate like it does. I can't see that it will increase the proceeds to the vendor, - most will possibly end up as scrap.
