I'm thinking one in real blade with fence and the other for a smaller curvy blade... But I also have a scroll saw. So I'm thinking of selling it for 50-75 or just keeping it.

It simply needs new tires. Opinions?

The jointer I will sell because who honestly needs 2 of those heavy things. Lol

Trade ya a jacobs drill chuck(with key) fer the bandsaw!

We can each just pay postage to ship(that oughta even things out!).

Sold the bandsaw and jointer to a guy setting up his son a shop area for his new home. $100 total for both. Gave him a Hella deal. I did swap out the table top with a cast one I had laying around so I could get my father in law an upgraded table (still have 1 spare cast top if I ever desire it again).

It was nice of you to basically throw the BS in for free.

Rather than a shorty or a mini, consider making a power station - no table.

You could get more for the table/carriage.

Not shortening it. I have 3 floating tables, the main, and a support table at the end, it's a secondary assembly table with a headstock for the SPT on the left side.
