 smiley_bounce  Well, that's the best smiley I could find to say I'm green with envy.  I have a Bench Master milling machine.  They made some really nice stuff.  Not sure what I'd do with a punch press, but it would sure be cool to have!  If you were so inclined, you could make a living off of all the nice things you get your hands on.  But, I know you'd rather add to you little collections... :D

She might be better off selling to the FF members and/ or local folks.  The IRS loves estate sales , all that extra money puts you in the big bracket of the people that" don't pay their fair share"

Wifie complanes that I don't sell some of my stuff now.
I said ... Why? All I would get for it is money.What would I
do with money? Just buy more stuff. I already got what I want.
Everyday I can walk out to one of my shops and play with things
that i don't even remember having. It's a dream world that I don't
want to give up. Just looking at the stuff gives me pleasure.
I don't think I will ever stop collecting. I could post so many pictures
if things in my collections that people would get sick at looking at them.
This is just a sample of one of my buildings...

I have already seen some pretty neat background in pictures that you were not highlighting your stuff in.  You build a sawmill and I look at all the stuff in the picture not just the saw mill.  I doubt I get tired of it.

Now we understand why K built a sawmill. He needed lumber for buildings to keep his "stuff" in  ;D I'm envious...

Dang K, not only nice equipment, but clean and neat areas to work/dream/play in.  I am envious of you and your type of people with this trait.  I am of the PHD methodology, Piled Higher/Deeper.   Very nice.

So where do think he gets all this cool stuff from?   ;)  :D.  I'm a keeper myself almost ashamed to say, but mine would fit into the "junk" part...

With the cold and the snow and mud I have been avoiding the junkyard.
Today I needed to make a trip to town and I could not resist stopping in
to see if anything was new. This is what I found. Cost me a cool $20.00.
I have no idea if it works but not much can go wrong with a welder.
