Mart, that is one strange site!  You really pick them!  LOL  Yeah alot like what I was thinking the more I was searching.

I was thinking it was along the lines of this one Mart....the piece would bolt to the roller and adjust up/down depending on the height of the meat to the floor (There are restrictions on that believe it or not in industrial applications).

Yes it is strange !!  But I was in a hurry and had to take what I could find quickly !!  Thats it KC !! Pull down and the meat could be turned for inspection !!  These may be missing the rollers !! Or could have been a different design !!

As for the value?  Well, unless you know a little upstart for meat or someone who does their own butchering...not much.

I would at least try for $10 - $12 each.

Thats about what I had in mind too !!  However if you sell on ebay,, could go higher !!   I can see hunters needing something like these !!  Great for field dressing deer ect !!

LOLOL Greenacres.

I was thinking selling from the home and agree with Mart that they would probably sell higher elsewhere.

Might try Craigslist first,, gear your ad toward hunters and price them at $25. ea !! Always ask more because they will sure want to haggle about price !! Then knock $5. off ,,, they think they get a good deal and you are way ahead !!
