You ever heard the "movie" term, "Spit Take?"
Well, it happened, and said keyboard now has a mouthful
of "adult beverage" all over it.
Seriously guys, this group ROCKS!

10 ER, stripped down.
Basic 10ER, Parts machine. Will be a semi-dedicated drill-press machine.
10 ER, a "survivor" of the trailer fire, in the back yard, needing restoration. Has a Mk5 headrest. Finally, stripped down.
Numerous parts, for Model 10 stuff. Except for lower saw guard, A and B adapters, I've got it.
Looking for one more, or some 9 inch extension table raisers.

"good" chef's knife. Spaghetti squash, especially young squash, will
TEST a knife blade.
Maybe, the bandsaw was a good idea, Francis!

Re: portable bandsaw ?
Well, For metal working, I don't have a portable bandsaw however, I do have a small 4 x 6 model which I purchased from Northern 8 years ago. It's uses the 64-1/2" blades and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Yes, There are better saws available however, I have cut an enormous amount of tubing (round, square and rectangular) along with flat bar, solid rnd, etc...
Way tubes, No problem with the saw. As long as you set the machine up correctly, It makes beautiful cuts with Bi-Metal blades...

Re: portable bandsaw ?
According to the specs this should be able to cut 5" which I have not varified but hope is true.
Pretty much rained out this past week, well at least when I was wanting to try it out. This week is full of things to do so I'm not sure I'll get to using it then either.
As it is turning out I could have waited for Mother's Day and got the extra 5% off.....
