mission accomplished, tools saved!

We have found a home for all of the equipment, no need to respond any longer: This is a real shame... My friend is cleaning out their parents house after her mom has passed. She has gotten some folks to take some of her fathers equipment, but has some pieces left. A Craftsman 12” band saw A Delta be...

SS Jointer on a Powerstand

I've had this jointer on a power stand for a while, and haven't touched it except to roll it out of the way. It is in excellent condition, just barely dusty, no rust at all. 1) possible worth? 2) anyone wanna make an offer? In my little shop, I do a lot of turning and no flat work to speak of. The t...
