Default Pardon the spam: FA: cheap woodworking machines

After 127 years, we are no longer making our wood blocks so, I'm selling off
most of my machines. (I just can't part with everything) I know what we
paid for these and I know what they cost to maintain and I think they are
well below market value. It's the sad end of an era but I need the
floorspace and a new Bridgeport. Please excuse the blatant marketing but
something here just might be what somebody here is praying for and will put
another American to work.

This should be a link to the stuff I have listed: 36" bandsaw, 18" cross-cut
saw, rip saw, drill press, moulder. We have processed MILLIONS of
board/feet of Beech.

I'll miss the aroma of fresh sawdust...a LOT!!!

A Bridgeport is like a 3 dimensional router for metal with precise control
over all 3 axis. Accuracy is measured in the tenths of thousands of an
inch. (.0001") We build our production machinery and punch-dies in house.

Man, I wish you were closer. Too far for me to tote that kind of
iron, though.

A city in Connecticut. Damn, they are moving an entire city into the wood
shop?

I wish... I was really drooling over that drill press, but it'd cost
twice as much to move it as it would be to buy it in the first place.

Would you feel better if I wanted more for the machine?

that supplies a number of manufacturers. See my stuff at
