Worth a watch.
Interesting but in reality stuff like that is worth its weight in iron no more.
Couple of years ago i was offered the contents of a workshop out Wivenhoe way, just the same kind of workshop crammed full of junk & garbage with a lot of worn out scrap iron & a few good bits if you were lucky. The owner had died & the landlord wanted it cleared, he got all upset when i offered him a very low price. But factor in two blokes plus lorry for the light weight bits, a 70 mile round trip with probably 4 trips to do over 4 days, plus a Hiab truck & driver for 1 day to move the big bits. We were not going to get rich.
Most firms would charge to take it away. Its all still there as far as i know.
Worth a watch.
I'm not the tidiest worker, but I can't believe the state of the few parts of that workshop that are still in use -piles of swarf almost 2 feet high, pieces of round stock all over the floor just waiting to pitch someone into a running machine etc. It certainly does look like most of that machinery would achieve the highest price only when it's weighed in
