Why I am building my SS system

Post by ibskot »

I have moved a ton. I'd have a nice little setup then have to sell it since I was moving. Then to move something was back breaking. With a SS I can fit a whole shop of power tools in my van... along with wife and 2 kids. Hopefully, I am through moving. .. but you never know. latest acquisition. Bought for the belt sander.The jointer was behind the passenger seat on floor in front of one car seat. [ATTACH]26539[/ATTACH]

I was thinking that as I was taking it apart. This could be the ultimate job site saw. The previous owner had to be the nicest seller of amything. He had a 10ER for sale too. I just don't have space. I have too many Mark V's as it is.
