Oerlikon
We have had a discussion previously about these Swiss machines but this is the first time I have seen one in this condition. More here - eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

That is an astonishingly well presented machine, isn't it. That listing should be in the hall of fame for how to list your item. The seller also keeps a stable of Deckel machines...he sold one a year or so ago on PM. I think his name is Pete.
In the photos there is a picture of a young Elvis Presley fixin' to do some drillin'

What a beaut drill. The guy certainly has some nice gear for sale, he must have contacts in the aerospace industry or NASA looking at some of that stuff.
Did anyone see the Graz SAG14 on ebay today ?. Claimed to be in excellent condition with a buy out of $3500, I sent a message about going to have a look at it but it was gone within the hour . Buyer got a bargain if it was as good as it looked.

Seller is the guy who owns/owned Berner Scientific, nice stuff, prices ambitious though!
Not sure it's still there, he had parts for a FP3 that was "damaged beyond repair" which sounds like yet another tip over. Fork lift moves seem to be the mode of choice in the US, someone contacted me about - a near new - Sag 12, couple of days ago that fell off the tines and destroyed the apron and handles on the headstock.

I think the forklift and the hydraulic press are responsible for more busted stuff than everything else put together. Forklifts are rarely operated by people who care a lot about the load or the outcome.
I have a friend here with an Arboga that between buying and collecting was damaged by the help with zero understanding of safe lifting points. Tore the table right off it!
Great price on that SAG 14.
