Online Auction Lathe in Groton NY

 

Not mine.? Just posting in case someone is looking and doesn't wade through the 400+ lots in the auction.? This is in the Tietsworth online auction this week.? I had a 6" so I am not familiar with the larger ones.? This is a 10" or 12".

My 6" Craftsman was loaded on a truck and hauled away today.? Same deal as when I got it 30 or so years ago.? My father picked it up because it was local to him.? I was the 2nd owner.? The new (3rd) owner's father picked it up for him and it will go to NJ when it gets picked up from the father's shop.? Turns out I knew the new owner when he was a little kid and his brother was in scouts with my son.

RE: Raymonds commet about building in/out feed tables for his Dewalt. I have been using Habor Freight telescoping roller stands for infeed & outfeed supports with pretty good luck. Inexpensive, easy to store, fast to set up, good for infrequent use. If I wanted something for a heavily used setup. I'd build in/out feed tables.


Re: The shop of all shops ?

 

Someone please tell me Russell Garrens didn't die of lung cancer. I think a few good machinists inhaled too many particulates, grinding dust, and coolant mist and their work killed them in the end. I think about this every time I pick up something initialled by the German toolmaker whose stuff I ended up with. As I went through his shop I found bunches of empty pill bottles from his lung cancer drugs.

Re: The shop of all shops ?

 

I, like Bill Burton, have bid on and won many things from Premier Machinery Auctions. I agree with Bill, they are a top notch auction company.
?
I am also one of the people in the "Twin Cities Home Machinists" group who knew Russell Garrens personally, and I can attest to his skills as a machinist, and to the fact that he did indeed use the equipment in his shop.? I have attended many live machine shop auctions with Russell back in the day when that was a thing, and when Russ was there also, (which was most of them) I stood very little chance of out bidding him for things we both wanted.??
?
Bear in Mind that this is not a "one and done" auction.? Premier estimates it will take at least 12 Auctions of 400 to 500 lots each, over the course of the next year to get through this shop.??
?
I would also like to point out that Russell's shop did not always look like this? The clutter and apparent disarray is a combination of the Covid lockdowns, and a Cancer diagnosis and Russell's attempt to cope with all that he was going through.?

I'm still recovering from a major surgery 11 months ago, and my shop has never looked worse.? I'm inclined to show a little grace here for the deceased.

Three torch kits: One mini O/A kit with MC Acetylene cylinder was the first I acquired pre-2000, then I upgraded to a B cylinder because the MC runs out too fast, and as my needs for heat increased I set up a full size cart with Oxy/Propane - 150 cuft Oxy (Size S)? and an 60 pound propane cylinder. That was 12 years ago. I swap out the Oxy cylinder once or twice a year (that's about 16 times) but have not yet refilled the propane cylinder - it's about 1/4 full now. By the time it will need to be refilled it will be out of test date and cheaper to just purchase another cylinder.

Re: The shop of all shops ?

 

I've bought many things through this auction company over the years and I think they're totally above board.? Several people in my local hobby machinist group in the Minneapolis area apparently knew this guy and it's all real.? Clearly he was hoarding, but I guess he was a fine machinist too.? Because of the extent of this auction it's getting a lot more widespread publicity than Premier's auctions usually do, which will probably result in higher prices for many of the more popular or sought-after items (so I may not end up bidding on anything even though I'm local).? Having followed Premier's auctions for years I can definitely attest that this one is unique!
