    Very big very heavy and very thick means that there might be allot of scrap buyers but few with the knowledge to process and cut up equipment of that size and process it to mill specs. You have a better chance of buying the heavy equipment over the motors. I would bet that the equipment sells for around 130/150 a gross ton. I am just guessing because I don't know your prepared prices or what the specs are to the mill. You better be willing to shell out 25 cents a lb for motors and hope you get a quick turnaround copper is dropping on the comex and that will translate to dropping prices at your yard.
