Nobodies hind quarters on the line, only a chance to make a little extra money for my time. The business has been defunct for several years. Guy tasked with cleaning out the warehouse was friends/partners with the guy that actually ran the place. Guy cleaning out the place told me to take whatever I wanted, and do whatever I wanted to with it, to help cover the time I spent helping out. That said, all of us involved stood around for close to three hours discussing the whole situation and how to store the stuff somewhere else til we could figure out how to get the unsassembled kits assembled and packaged and sold. Had we been able to do that there was probably a half a million dollars, or more at full retail price, setting there. Heck full retail on the pieces I got is nearly $42,000 on the one item, and probably that much or more on the others. Unfortunately I know I'll never see that much out of them, but anything I do make is pure profit since I only went with the intentions of getting several file cabinets, 40 feet of shelving, and some large pallet racks.

Saddly there was just too much stuff, it was too unorganized, there was no 'orginazational instruction' available. To top it off there was not enough time available to work out a real plan of attack beyond the whole "grab anything that might be worth something without alot more work" approach..... and unfortunately trash the rest.

Today's Featured Article - New Life for an Old Allis - by Tyler Woods. My friend Jon, has an old '39 Allis Chalmers B. He thought it a marginal tractor that had long since served its time. She smoked terribly and never had much power but he couldn't afford another so he was limping along with what he had. Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start ... [Read Article]
