Let's see your bandsaw

[wrustle]

Well, the stars aligned......I dug out the crow bar pried open my wallet......and it worked its magic......


Well, sorta........


The saw shown in the link in my previous post........well, a surplus machinery dealer in Washington had one for sale on ebay, brand new, never used. Just won the auction for $1,875.00!



I am one happy dude, let me tell you!!!

Picked up that same saw for half price.



Damn I love it when things go right! Seems every time I bid on ebay someone always comes in right at the end and rains on my parade!

Not today.......

Best Regards,
Russ

Pictures to follow...........

Well some of Ken's skill at getting good deals must have rubbed off on you. Congratulations! That's sure a nice looking saw.

Congrats Russ.

You really deserved to get a deal like that after the struggles you've been having with the old Enco saw.

You have definitely earned the coveted award:



Congratulations.

How is it shipping and are they charging $3,287.43 to do it?

Shipping via common carrier. $169.00 plus $75.00 for the liftgate service.

All totaled it came to $2,119.00. I can't complain one bit........

I easily just saved myself a good $1,700.00 on that deal.

I'll believe it's actually true when I see it sitting on my floor!

Thanks, and later,
Russ

Well, guess what showed up in my garage today?











Out with the old.....(in the background), and in with the new....(foreground)............





Now if I can just figure out how to get it off the damn pallet!

Later,

I guess I'm a glutton for punishment but I seem to always want to find something 1/2 worn out or at least needing some serious TLC thus my "new" Wellsaw bandsaw. Also stumbled onto a little Johnson Model B that I couldn't resist for another project.

I think you'll be happy with the Wellsaw. My brother has a model 58B and it seems to be a fairly well built tool.
