What should I do with them?

They wont sell easily on any Craigslist but it's free so may be worth a try. Ask $40 to $60 each, be happy if you get it. The make (brand) is unfamiliar to me, and I'm surprised to what appear to be regular socket head cap screws on the top clamps of the couple of them.

They would appeal to people with lathes 20" swing and over, and even then the most desirable is the bottom one. The big TNMG's have fallen out of favor with a lot of commercial shops because of the introduction of WNMG's in the bigger I.C. sizes. You can turn with a TNMG in that style holder but facing is limited to a light finish cut or buying an MTFNR style holder (or an MTJNL.)

Do you have a user account on Practical Machinist? There's a more focused group of potential buyers there.

you could just send them to me. I won't charge you much for storing them. They would fit my Multifix C tool holders. But my lathe only has 14hp so I don't know if it would be able to handle the load.

it probably wouldn't be able to handle the load of that size tool, someone should cut a dovetail in them so they can be used and a lower HP machine Rotfl Rotfl Rotfl , 14 HP Yikes
