My father passed away last year. He was a longtime machinist, barrel maker and gunsmith. I have two lathes and two mills which is one too many of each. I lack my dad's skills so I plan to sell the larger equipment but keep the smaller lathe and the smaller mill for the future.
Unfortunately I do not know much about the equipment I plan to sell. I want to set a fair price for it but I also don't want to be taken by someone who really knows the worth. Any help would be appreciated.
1) Milling/Drilling Machine ZX5015 #0210073, Shaoxing Yuejina Machinery Manufacture Co. China. Not sure of original purchase price.
2) Bench Lathe TY-C0632, P60276, Purchased 1996, Yang Zhou Machine Tool Works. Not sure of original purchase price
3) Universal Cutter Grinder, 2813 5, WHR 09 08 03 01, Purchased in 2004 for $849.
I also have a horizontal bar stock cutter/band saw...not sure of proper name. But I don't have information on it.
In addition to the equipment my dad had a variety of collets, bits, fixtures, etc. What should I consider as part of the equipment when I sell it? Should I consider all the accessories as just that, accessories to be sold or kept on their own?
I can post pictures if that would help. What other info. do I need to properly values these items?
Thanks.
