Anyone want a project Mark V?

Post by spiderclimber »

This was in my local Craiglist around Cleveland.

Mark V $75

Apparently not used in the last 25 years. My wife would kill me if I came home with another one.

A little far for me (I have gone a lot farther :rolleyes: ) and I don't have a need. Also I may be treading water a little right now for considering a TWH that a neighbor's parents are looking to shift... :)

I did not equip with Shopsmiths in spite of the setups but because of them.

My daughter who lives just north east of Chattanooga TN was going to move up near Lexington but has decided to move to someplace warmer instead. If she moves west I will not be passing through the Lexington area very often...
I do still get to the Boone County KY and Harrison County KY now and then as well as the Hopkins County KY area at the more westerly part of the state . Usually stomping around old graveyards trolling for ancestors. I need to plan a short trip of that nature to Nicholas County KY this summer.
When I plan such a trip I like to check the local Craigslist to see if anyone nearby is trying to get rid of something I can't live without. ;)

All it said was "I have a Mark V that hasn't been used in 25 years. (35 plus years old). There are a couple of boxes of stuff that goes with it. It has been stored inside. I don't know anything else about it than that."

Wasn't really detailed but I figured not turned on in 25 years means a lot of work :)

No more than if that was 5 years(or less). What is more relevant is the first 10!:)
