Got it.

ebay searches don't follow the criteria entered. I entered a 400 mile radius and it was displaying results from Massachusetts and California. 17428

Ever try the RSS craigslist feeds? It lives on the taskbar/panel/whatever at the bottom of your screen. Mine checks every hour and turns green when it finds something, and then I can use it to open a browser normal-like and get the nitty-gritty.

Search Tempest for area-wide searches, RSS for local or specific lists, and a whole lot of patience should turn something up.

Thanks for the tip. I set up the RSS feed.

There's a setting under "Preferences" on the result screen to disable those searches.

Vinny got it right.

I'm going to keep looking for a full sized, used mill until mid-August. If I haven't found anything by then I'm going with the Precision Matthews PM-935 mill.
