Major score on some ww equipment
A large millwork shop closed down here in Vegas. It was owned by a man I used to work for who also owned a mechanical contracting company. I purchased some clamps from them a few months ago and I got a call letting me have the first look at the rest of the small equipment. Everything I bought was either in "NEW" or condition or "LIKE NEW" condition. Hitachi 12MV router, Porter Cable 690 router with base, at least a dozen Amana ogee and roundover, straight cut, and dovetail bits (1/2" shank) 9 Amana 1/4" shank bits (ogee and straight cut) two 10" Forrester 2 blades, and a Husky 17 gal, 150 psi 5 hp peak compressor. Snagged it all for $200. Everything is in top shape and now that my new Grizzly G0732 table saw arrived, I'm practically back in business. Won't be getting the rest until we get moved up to Minnesota in the late spring/early summer. I guess the jummywood will be piling up. Hello to all my old buds on this site -

Although two routers and 20 or so bits is not really a lot. I would think a large millwork shop would do everything with shapers. Ogee and roundover are definitely shaper cutter territory. |

There were 22 workbenches in this shop and probably 35 routers of varied sizes and shapes. There were at LEAST 75+ bits lying in the tray - I sorted through what I wanted (2 were still in their original plastic bags and protective coating on the edges) They sold 9 Powermatic table saws (don't recall the model) before they ever moved out of the building. |
