I have seen this ad for quite a while on Craigslist, and even on ebay once upon a time, for a higher price.

Price has been dropped at least once.

I see at least three major accessories and the DC, plus it looks like a lot of smaller accessories too, such as Tenon Master.

Might be a good Christmas present for somebody looking for a fairly complete shop.

Hello,

So this is not an offer to sell, but a request for advice. My dad recently passed away, and we have his Mark VII with lots of attachments which we need to do something with. Although I do a reasonable amount of hands-on work in my spare time, most of the carpentry is really more like rough carpentry (shed building, rough projects) rather than fine woodworking, and I don't think I have the time to do the refurbishing that the Mark VII (mid-60's vintage) would require. So we would really like this machine to go to someone who could use it, rather than to a scrap yard. My main question is: where is the best place to advertise this, or the best way to locate someone local who might be able to refurbish and use this machine? Is it all craigslist and eBay, or is there a better way to go?

Thanks in advance,
Jay

Sorry for your loss, and thank you for wanting to have the Mark VII go to a good home.

It would help to know what city you are in. Posting here may generate a PM (Private Message) from an interested member. In addition to Craigslist, try posting on the Shopsmith Fans Buy, Sell, and Wanted Facebook Group.
