    You SUUUCK!
    Great deal!

    DOH! I got beat to the first back-slapping by being too slow on the mouse!
    Just as well, I see you scored a WAY SWEET red kid's car there too--Well done, that shows real situational awareness to be sure to bring home something for everyone!

    I think everyone was scared of it. It was in a very small and dark room. Couldn't tell if the room had been built around it. In the end i had to leave the base for the cyclone. It was welded solid. It took about 2 hours to get it disassembled and loaded. I am happy. Way more collector than i will ever need.

    I'd probably build a separate room for the DC - I bet it's amazingly loud. That being said you have an amazing deal there. $2? Really?

    That dust collector might be a bad deal if you have cats. Aget is still in business in Adrian, MI. $2 is amazing. There must not have been any scrap dealers at the auction.

    You should put a camera on your power meter for when you kick that on too. I wonder if the dials will still be legible.....

    I do plan on a separate room. I have a 96 x 54 x 16 pole barn that is yet to be finished.

    $2 is the actual amount for the machine. I do have $8 in it if you count beverages for my removal crew.
