I've been offered a surface grinder
#1
The title says it all. I've seen it sitting in his shed surrounded by junk and I know he's never used it since buying it at an auction. He has just had a knee replacement, so I'm not going to ask him to go and take pictures or dig up details. I'm going to see if I can get over there this weekend. 

Asking price is $150 which I think is very reasonable given where I am.

Why wast time?
It should be in your workshop by now.
I have one, not often used but when it is it is a irreplaceable tool.
A Magnetic chuck is essential to get the best out of it.
All the best

Trev - there is no rush, as I have first refusal. Besides, work is hectic for me at present, so I need to wait until the weekend.

Willie - thank you Big Grin

Ed - Thank you some more Big Grin Big Grin

What great luck! You kept saying you didn't get deals like me, and this proves you're WRONG.

Hell, I know for a fact you are sitting on a box of end mills and drills which constitute a "tool gloat" and haven't met your obligation with that yet. Big Grin

You were there in my shop to see how nice and quick a surface grinder can dress up a surface and make it flat when I did that to the grooving/parting tool for your mate. Now you'll be able to do that too!

Very true Ken - but my gloats are much less frequent that yours...

I will certainly be posting my tool gloat when I get some pics together when I'm at my other shop, as the stuff that went into my suitcase are down there.

The technical term here in the UK is "Jammy Git", just saying...  Big Grin

Is that for "gloat" or "You suck"? 17428

You Suck

Wait...I'll pay $200. How much do you think it would cost to ship it up here?
