Man, if only I had the room, and maybe a flatbed truck. I can only imangine
what it would cost to move 10,000lbs of machinery - let alone the power
requirements.

That said, after making some dies, you could probably do quite well punching
out polymer pistol frames in that sucker.

such machines.

That machine wouldn't be that big a deal to move really. A decent
gooseneck type flatbed trailer on a dually pickup can handle the weight,
and if you can reasonably match dock heights a roller move wouldn't be
difficult. Also within the capacity of a decent size forklift. If the
owner didn't mind you doing a little disassembly work and taking two
trips, a regular rental equipment trailer could do it.
