FREE-Vintage Magna Sawsmith Radial Arm Saw-FREE (brentwood / oakley)

California - San Francisco Bay Area

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/tls/5494592947.html

FREE!!! To a good home. Vintage (early/mid 1960's) Magna "Sawsmith" radical arm saw. 100% complete and working. This is NOT junk. Fully functional and NOT worn out and ready for the scrap heap. Comes with multiple variety of blades and a sanding drum (as pictured). There are several websites and forums dedicated to the "Sawsmith" and parts diagrams and replacement parts. There are two links below. On the lower portion of the right side of the cabinet base there is some surface rust. Easily scraped or sanded off. Moving and can't take it with me. I only ask that whoever takes it will put it to good use and not just let it collect dust. Sits on roller wheels and easily moved around.

Great deal. If only I was closer. "The Californian Radical Radial Arm Saw"

I paid 100$ for one just like this last fall with a clean table, but still a bargain if it runs.

looks it has a speed changer, too

why does it have too be so far away

I'm not sure if this qualifies as a bargain but it is nearby. The first one in awhile. From the serial number I think it was made in 2001. I cant tell if it is 510 or 520. I emailed the seller. He wasn;t much help except for the photos.

I dont know the area pricing/selling, I would not call it a bargain at the asking price, but maybe for 800$ would be a fair price, 600$ if all works would be a bargain, IMHO.

Just posting this one to brag.

My brother and I are on our way to Tucson, to pick up a

standalone (yes, Shopsmith) planer, and I saw this posted

last night.

Here's the planer.

Nice find Steve, the one by me that I almost bought last month for $550 is still on CL for $550. Too much in my opinion.

skou

Well, here is the after action report.

ER is rough, speed changer has been broken and welded.

All 4 headstock bearings appear to be in PERFECT shape, though.

Way tubes have surface rust, but not enough to hinder disassembly.

Outside of one extension table, tailstock casting and rip fence,

the rest was missing. Did have the Model 10 jointer/shaper fence.

Planer looked to have been used, but you had to REALLY look.

The blades on the planer head, did have a nick, but my brother

knows the trick of sliding one blade sideways, to eliminate that.

Also came with a set of brand new blades.

Steve, as Dusty always sez, no pics, it has not happened!!!! Zone 51!!

skou

Hey, I was down in Tucson, and didn't see Dusty.

You sure he exists? :D

ERLover

Steve, you know what the bible sez "from dust to dust"!!!!! :eek:

skou

"Dust"y's deceased?

"Lover," maybe we should quit while we're ahead.

(Or something like that.)

"Dust"y's got "Ninja" powers here! We can be deleted

in a moment's notice!

(Guys, Lover and I are just having fun here.)

But, I DID score a serviceable speed changer,

(and a couple hundred pounds of Model 10

stuff,) for $90.

Bearings are worth that much. And, I've got the

tools to install them. (Won't need to, on this Model 10.)

Good for you Steve, and it is just a partial ER without that coveted Speed Changer

For all you 10ER guys. Here is a cast iron extension table. It is only the second one I have ever seen. I bought the first one. Don't know how much of a bargain it is since they are so rare but it is free shipping. I would certainly pay the asking price if I was looking for one.

John, Thanks for the heads up. I've been looking for one of these for a while.

I got the price down a little and I should have it by Thursday.

Cool! I think it was worth the asking price but with free shipping it is a bargain especially if you got it for less than the asking price. Good on you.

Another ER bargain? $90 includes the speed changer, the 4E type jointer and headrest (at least that's how it looks to me).
