You selling it?

I don't know about this one but there 4 more in the queue that probably will be on the market. Actually of the 5 here there will be 3 on the market if someone wants them. All with speed changers and they will have new OEM motor, spindle and drive sleeve bearings and belts. Bench top wood would be up to the purchaser.
This is not a business I am retired. I just hate to see these machines scrapped. When you can get a 10ER for $100 with a speed changer it is a no brainier. I live so far from anywhere

it will be hard to sell a machine without shipping.

Utah would be a nice vacation destination.

That 10er is sweet!

What was the difference/advantage/disadvantage of the 7 versus a 5?

Too many to list!
Has a reversing motor, built in dust collection, dual tilt, head moves on a rack gear.
And they just look darn cool!

The one you posted is not a 7 it is a VII.
If you are asking about the Mark 7 available now, check this out:

Bruce,
If you want one it could be arranged if you come to Utah. Refurbished for actual cost and a few bucks.

John that is a real gentlemans offer, and IMHO easier to restore then the Mark V series, but of course less parts on the whole speed thing. Even with a SC which is external, so much easier then getting a hand in side a V.

It's a short 17 hour drive for me. Anything around there to see?
