Got up to MI to retrieve my free ss, turns out it was not a Mark 7, but a mark 5/520. It came with a scroll saw, joiner, band saw, 6" belt sander, and I also got a hand held belt sander, hand held biscuit joiner, router table, and boxes of wood clamps and other assorted woodworking do-dads and what-nots. I think I did ok! Everything was given to me free...just paid for my gas up and back.

My unit was manufactured and sold in 2000, and I was told it has around maybe 10-15hrs on it total. Everything is in pristine condition, including the instruction manual and bill of sale. The original owner paid $5900.00 for the whole ball of wax!

Been reading the manuals, looking forward to building something.

And the advice I got about transporting from the forum members was spot on. Turned it on its back, took off the legs...piece of cake!

Wow, that RAV4 must have been packed to the gills!

With that windfall, you're equipped to build almost anything. What kind of stuff are you interested in making?
