Members Dantan Posted May 11, 2023 Members Report Posted May 11, 2023 I am posting this for a friend... very long story short, a bunch of large machinery was sold/bought in one big lot. Most of it was high precision machining equipment. ONE machine, is a type of clicker press , that I *think* is called a "Twin Beam" ? Has "Hudson" on the front, but on the side plate, lists a company from england. I am told it is less then 10 years old, has only been used in a very clean environment, to cut gasket materials. Since I do leather work, I was offered first dibs on it... but to be honest, it is way bigger than I need.. and I already have a sling-arm clicker that works fine for me.. but I offered to help find it a home. Any suggestions on what this is worth? Is anybody interested in it? or have more information about it? It is currently located in Massachusetts, They also have a forklift to load it onto a truck... but no, probably not going in your mini van. Quote
Members Dantan Posted May 11, 2023 Author Members Report Posted May 11, 2023 P.S. from some web research, it looks like new, depending on the add-ons, this machine sells *new* , for over $50,000 . We are currently thinking of putting it on Ebay, and letting the market drive the price... but I thought we should put it up on here first. Quote

It's very niche and unfortunately that means you may have a tough time. I'd recommend you give Dan at Randall Campbell a call. They can tell you what it's worth and possibly sell it if you want to go that route. Quote
MikeRock Posted May 11, 2023 Report Posted May 11, 2023 From the paint slobbers around the machine label, it's a 'newly' repainted machine. Pretty sloppy for a new machine where they rivet the label on as the last item. Quote
Contributing Member fredk Posted May 11, 2023 Contributing Member Report Posted May 11, 2023 Samco-Strong Ltd. ceased trading in 2016 but was a dormant company since 2002 so it might be hard to get parts for it if required Quote
