Looks like a left-handed gloat to me, is there actually a Primus hand plane hidden somewhere in the photo?

Nice score, came with some sort of Felder stand underneath it.

All I see is a "borrowed" CHEP pallet

Great score, How much of a gloat is it $$$$$$

Ok....How much was the Primus hand plane, Johnny?!?!
Does the nice big slider have anything to do with this gloat at all? ...hmm I guess I just don't get it.

Maybe he's going to use the Primus to whittle down the CHEP pallet.

Anyway, the saw is a felder k975, 110 inch slide, 5.5 kw (7.3 hp), no scoring.
I had originally thought about buying a festool saw to chop up plywood, but the more I looked, the more it seemed that it would be about a thousand dollars for the saw and the accessories. I had a unisaw, which I was never happy with for full sheets of plywood. The more I looked, the more it seemed that this type of machine was within reason. The price was comparable to a new "upscale" cabinet saw. It is sad to say, but this type of machine is being sold off by industry in pretty good numbers.
Now I need to figure out how to get the pallet back to it's owner.

No scoring blade?? Ouch! What about cross-grain cuts? That is what sliders do best, IMO!
