Any objection to the occasional for sale announcement here? I've got
a couple of items gathering dust that may be useful to one of the

The group policy is that you ship the products to me for review prior to any
FS post. All liability for shipping, and any incidental disappearance of
the product is borne by the shipper. Sorry - that's just the groujp
policy...


Don't believe it, Larry, Mike lies! PM me and I'll send you MY address,
I'm supposed to do thatg

Seriously, I don't recall seeing a ban on such postings if there is one.
If no one points out a breach of etiquette prior to tomorrow
afternoon, I would suggest going for it. A few on topic posts offering
up surplus woodworking equipment/tools isn't going to kill anyone.

We all post gloats from time to time and those tend to take on a life of
their own with the "one upmanship" and weeping, wailing, gnashing of
teeth, etc over what mighta coulda beeng

Had the common sense to ask suggests that you won't wear out your welcome.
