Members terra Posted September 4, 2014 Members Report Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) I am tasked with cleaning out our warehouse and inside are numerous pieces of machinery from an old leather factory. I am curious as to what each of these machines do, how much they cost new and how much are they worth used. Really interested in the second picture it looks like a really interesting piece of equipment The last few pictures are of a machine that we disassembled and cleaned it was made by randall machinery from New York it has the numbers R6501 and R6562 sramped on the housing and the model number is R-14. It appears to be working fine, and it seems as if the cobra company still makes a similar machine was curious to know how much it is worth. Edited September 4, 2014 by terra Quote
Members Itch Posted September 4, 2014 Members Report Posted September 4, 2014 Where are you located as that may help a bit. The last pic is a strap cutter. Quote

Contributing Member Ferg Posted September 4, 2014 Contributing Member Report Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) First pic is a skiving machine. Could be a Fortuna, cannot tell from photo. Pretty bad shape. Would need to be dismantled, cleaned, serviced and checked out. I would give you $50 to $100 for it. One hundred if it is a Fortuna. ferg Edited September 4, 2014 by 50 years leather Quote
Members terra Posted September 4, 2014 Author Members Report Posted September 4, 2014 Ok good to know we have machinists on hand for our other equipment I can get it cleaned up and tested to see if it is working, however I think shipping for these machines will be a small fortune. Quote
Moderator bruce johnson Posted September 4, 2014 Moderator Report Posted September 4, 2014 I generally don't deal with motorized stuff but I have sold a two of the Randall strap cutters in good condition for around $400 each. Quote
Members terra Posted September 4, 2014 Author Members Report Posted September 4, 2014 I am also interested in what these machines do if anyone could help me with that it would be great Quote
Members terra Posted September 4, 2014 Author Members Report Posted September 4, 2014 Here is a link to dropbox to view all of the photos. I will start cleaning them and be putting up new photos over the next few weeks. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tujdfwzdc9hkq83/AADFDTb6k00SsRpH4fdkeizda?dl=0 Quote
Members awharness Posted September 5, 2014 Members Report Posted September 5, 2014 Hey terra, I'm in the northeast and can come down with a pick up and cash. Email me andrew@awharness.com. I am interested in a good majority of the equipment. Quote
