Merry Christmas to me.

Post by rpd »

I've desired one of these for some time, :) not sure when I'll use it, but very cool to have one.
Perhaps I can try that freehand sawing (no table) that they showed in the ad. :eek:
The price and shipping were both very reasonable, but in the end still not cheap.

US $45.00 for flex shaft
US $30.75 shipping
US $6.46 import charges
Us $82.21 Total
Equals
Can $112.15

Import charges? Canada?

I have two of them that are SS and both together were about $55. Glad you are happy with the purchase. :)

I've had this on my eBay watch list for a long time. And this is one of the first that came up. A lot of sellers down there won't ship to Canada so they don't show up for me. And the shipping wasn't bad, I have seen small items like tie bars recently that were charging more than that for shipping.
