But still no indication of where. Looks like a TAFE though.

Probably Elizabeth TAFE, it's the only one I know of in the Northern area. There is a training facility in the Otterway region, I think.

That's what I thought too, apparently they will release the location details on Monday for the inspection so a trip north might be on the cards...

Anybody else go to the viewing today? Very few people there considering the amount of stuff.

There may have been only a few there, but how deep were their pockets or cheque book balances???
Where was it, and are you going, Eric?

I went, it's a private training centre in Elizabeth East, set up when DSTO shut down their apprentice school.
There's some good stuff there as well as some dross, I'll be bidding on a couple of items online as I have to work.
Getting the heavy stuff out will be interesting as there is no lifting kit there and little headroom.

IMG_20181023_161914.jpg I only got one thing. It needs a motor and pulleys but it looks pretty nice otherwise.

Did anyone catch what the straight edges went for?
what sort of money did the machines get?

The straight edges where over $100 when I bailed out I vaguely remember $150. One of the Sheraton's went for $850. The Steelfast vertical bandsaw went for $1200 but the bigger German vertical bandsaw with blade welder went for only $350. The Wood bandsaw at around item 606 went for $450. The Hercus 3A Tool and Cutter grinder the only accessory for which was the vice went for $200 (that is the only accessory I am missing and whilst I might pay that for the vice on a good day I didn't want to be dumped with yet another Hercus tool grinder. I already have two in my shed atm). I bought a really nice Waldown 8SN with a square T slotted table and rack lift table (but missing motor and intermediate pulleys) for $180 (so the days of my noisy Taiwanese vibration source are limited).

Both went for $160-180 if I recall + 15%
Some of the machines (larger ones) went quite cheap.
Cincinnati and K&T mills all around $250-300.
Turret mills $2500-$5000+.
Hercus 9A cylindrical grinder only $200.
European lathes $400-450, the larger lathes (Japanese and UK) for significantly more.
Profile projector $180.
NT50 tool holders very cheap.
I think, like someone else mentioned the larger machines are not simple lifts due to low ceiling heights. Dollies and pushing around.
