Sounds like a fight to the death for heavy iron!

Ok, day one is complete. Hopefully the guys will post about their plunders and vehicles packed to the ceiling.
I must pull it out all and reorganize what is left, and make another pass through the warehouse this morning.
Most notable items remaining:
( ) Almost all road cases here. Vehicles that came could not sacrifice space for cases, so items were removed and stacked. Rackmount cases with hardware inside and foam isolation. Removable front/rear. Still lots of long skinny cases
(1) Nesslab HX150 Chiller
(1) Passive radiator style chiller
(1) 171 in road case with whitelight optics. Did not test tube.
(3) 270 exciters. All operational. 1 in road case
( ) Several more racks from the real Image Engineering (Boston) electronics. Scan amps, ugcs, aom drivers, pcaom interfaces, power supplies, remote actuator drivers, etc.
( ) Several more hundred feet (really, probably a few thousand) multi-pair signal wire. I believe 8 pair with drain, each pair individually foil shielded. Most with IE, Boston ends. Some with higher conductor counts used for snakes.
( ) Several rolls of 3-Pin XLR snake. 6 Channel I believe. Was used for dmx, and remote 'trashcan' rotating mirrors.
(1) Rotary 3 phase converter. Will sell for the price of the motor. Control box goes with it free.
What ever else I find on the next pass of the warehouse today once I regroup. Pictures later if there are any major discoveries.
Again, hoping the guys yesterday post about their finds.
Sorry I just saw this. Thank you George for being good to all of us and remembering us. Hope all is well with you. We appreciate the opportunity.
More pictures from this morning.
15HP Rotary Phase Converter. Motor new never attached to equipment. Price for half of motor cost plus cabinet for free. Motor was $1400 -- so $700 for entire kit.
Cases and other goodness, as always, free!
Opened this case to find full AMX theatre control system. Someone wants to have some fun with this...
Wow, that was fun, BEAUTIFUL FACILITY
I'll post some pics, I got in at 3:30 AM after having to take a 60 mile construction detour on the way home.
I slept, started unloading the van at 6:45 AM, transfered half the gear to the borrowed storage, and the other half is setting the driveway, with some in the mini-barn.
I imagine U-HAUL is going to send me a bill for 4 shocks and a transmisison overhaul, the van was loaded deep.
And Phenom is a beautiful machine, got to see the assembly line.
If someone gets the AMX, let me know I have a 1U decoder and display in one of the roadcases.
I will be redistributing some of this to a few struggeling laserists, some hobbyists, some research PhDs and kids for the science fair.
I can't say thank you enough.

Qui habet Christos, habet Vitam!
I should have rented the space under my name for advertising.
When I still could have...
Just saw today , but emailed anyway.
Maybe I can pick up something in the second round
My problem is I'm always on a shoestring.
If anyone sees something good, small and gassy I'd be very interested.
Also, still don't have a projector - Still looking for parts
This is fantastic, don't get me wrong, but how are you affording to just give this stuff away?
As you can tell, I even got a Nice Kitchen Sync in this Haul
The Kitchen Sync syncs two digital encoded Beta decks for show playback, or a Beta Deck and a FM encoded Tape.
