The guy was in his 80's and been doing it for 60 plus years. I can't blame him for wanting to retire. Unfortunately, his kids didn't want to take it over.

30 ton hydraulic press
Di-acro 24" shear on base
Precision Brand 18"x 24" Surface plate with stand
I did bring the stainless 3T arbor press base home also just in case . .
No lathes , mill or the horizontal saw was not moved today . I had to get an electrician to unwire them all . They were all hard wired . He threw in the breaker boxes and wire for me . There was also no-one there to drive the forklift . I have my license thru the company but I can't do a darn thing because I'm out on medical .
