Title: Auction
Post by: Gopher on May 31, 2014, 02:59:04 PM
http://www.ppauctions.com/auction.php?id=113 there is a Versatronics machine in there and a basic Essemtec printer. I think possibly the BBC auction also may include some electronic test equipment amongst the mixing desks, speakers and furniture.

Hmm, what's an RP1? Is that the dawn'o'time one?

I'm guessing either a typo, or was the "P" the dispensing model...

I think it may be something odd - pic is prettly low res, but no sign of feeders ( though mentioned in text) , something orange under the arm, and what looks like a rectangular tank at the right. Also looks like there may be no fixed camera

Definitely a feeder cable hanging out the left side and some dark blue things on the floor to the right might be feeders.
Sandy colourd thing on the table to the right of the arm looks like block of wood.
No sign of a fixed camera.

Details now up http://www.ppauctions.com/lot.php?l_id=46211&id=113&search=versatronics&cat=all&perPage=20&sort=2&thisPage=1

Located Aunby. Linconshire.

Looks like it's all there, plus what I assume is a (homemade?) dispenser - sponge at park position suggest something drippy!

Possible corrosion/rust on the Z axis rack.

Fair bit of rust on the vibes too. So it does have a fixed camera and a nice number of feeders.

For the record, feeders were 3 x vib, 6x8mm, 1x 16+12, and whatever this is

Turns out that the mystery item is an EW200 wire-stripper from ABECO (made by Vessel in Japan).

I haven't fired up the RV1S (SN: 30201) yet, but I have spent 20 mins playing with the wire-stripper.
