Free Mark VII Available for Pickup

Post by billmayo »

I received the following Email message today from Bill Campbell alancamp@telus.net offering me his Mark VII for free. Since he is not asking for any money and I am way too far away to pick it up, I would hope someone living near Bill will invest the time to pick it up. Sounds like a really good deal. Please let me know if anyone picks up this Shopsmith as I plan to list it on the local Craig's List after the 15th for him. I do not want to see any Shopsmith going to the dump. Thanks.

Bill

This Mark 7 is brand new. I bet it has no more than 15 hrs. on it. I do not want anything for it. Just a good home as I have not used it and never will. I have no interest in it. As a matter of fact, it was 3 days ago I phoned Shop Smith to ask how old it was. I live in Vancouver B.C. 1095 east 62 ave. Vancouver B.B. Canada V5X-2H1 Phone (604) 321-6241 I will be moving Sept. 30 so it will be going to the dump by the end of the month.

To far for me.........But, I did use the Google map and it looks like Gampa in Seabeck, WA is the closest possible rescuer.

Hopefully he sees this post.

Practical use of the map. It should be placed on a sticky.

To far for me, but I sure hope it is offered to a local school or training facility, even to park rangers maintainance prior to a dump trip.

I have a cousin (wife's cousin, actually), that lives in BC very near to Vancouver in Surrey. Going to give him a call...
