Where? We purchased an auction box, has lots of machining tooling in it, particularly several pounds of carbide inserts, some with PCD tips, some coated, etc...

best ideas?

Any new ones? Sell those on Ebay or similar. Used carbide can be sold to your local scrap metals yard, but call several for the best price.

It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to be always right by having no ideas at all.
 
lots of new ones, and some used bt30, cat40 tool holders, plus some Komet ABS50 tools, going to e-bay all of it I think. Thanks!

We pay $7.05 a pound for scrap inserts. eBay is a better deal for you for new ones.

Scrap prices have been dropping the last year or so.
