We have tons of cutters lying around at work so I should be able to grab a few here and there. Both have multiple lights and one has a little mister/coolant contraption.

My new boss was going to let a used machinery dealer have these and some other non-used machinery for dirt cheap just to get rid of them quick for some quick cash influx and to start cleaning up/organizing our machine shop. These two are easily worth $1500 each, so I could not pass them up. Too bad I don't have room for a massive Union boring mill or a Fadal machining center.
