I'm visiting my mom in Maryland and we slowly trying to sort out Dads Tools and equipment since he passed in January. All the big stand alone stuff is pretty much spoken for, except for the Vintage DeWalt Radial Arm Saw he bought new in the early 70s. Still runs great and has ALL the manuals etc. I'll be here 2 more days, so first come first serve.
FREE to anyone who will come and get it in DAMASCUS, MARYLAND.
Give a cell call, 831-332-8938

Spent the afternoon today with Bill Mayo at his home and in his shop. Bill is amazing and has developed ideas & methods on the Mark V I do not believe anyone else has ever thought of.

Most impressive was his motor test station where he rebuilds and modifies motors for reverse operation and some from 120 to 220/240 VAC operation. Then there was his tube polisher set up which was around the corner from a headstock he is testing something new on. While I was there, he realized one thing he hadn't thought of. He made a slight adjustment & voila...it worked!

2-3 hours past by so quickly. I wished I lived in Florida and not in New Jersey. If any of you every get near Tampa, you won't be far from Bill

Thanks Bill!

Did you take any photos or videos of the setups?
