I am trying out a radial arm saw that a co-worker wants to sell. It is a
DeWalt/Black & Decker model 7740/3421(says "Black and Decker" on the arm and
"DeWalt on the blade guard). The saw is at least 15 years old and shows
moderate use and wear (I replaced the motor bearings ($10) because they were
noisy), but it seems to be very solid and accurate. It comes with a very
sturdy open base but no other accessaries.

Can anyone give me an estimate on the value of this saw? His preliminary
asking price was $400, but that seemed kind of high for a saw of this age.

TIA

I just bought a 740 in great shape for $75

The post replied to was 19 years old.

Let's do the time warp a gai in.



LOL! Gotta wonder what would happen if somebody posted an ad from, say,
Woodworker's Supply from that era stating there was a sale on Bessey
clamps at five for $20 or something. Would they check the date before
heading out the door?


Probably via the scanner. But I wonder....Nah, I'd feel mighty guilty.




Di it!!!! Title the post as This is a Test! LOL
