I have been watching craigslist for over 3 months. Been on the hunt for a jointer and planer. Really wanted an 8 inch jointer but couldn't pass up the Powermatic 6 inch that was never turned on (a son was selling his dads tools, kind of sad, his dad never got to use a lot of them. I didn't even negotiate, he had them priced very well) Got it for $600 and figured until I find an 8 inch this will work and I shouldn't lose too much on the deal. I also bought his newer used 13 inch Jet planer molder for $700 but as luck would have it, I found a Jet 15 inch planer with the Shelix cutter head this weekend for a $300 more so I sold the 13 inch already. To gloat a little more, sold a couple shotguns that I haven't used in years so I am not out a dime with all the transactions. Feeling pretty good. All I need now is a good buy on a 3hp table saw to complete the shop.
In the process of expanding my shop to 900 sq ft and starting a small business. Focusing on children's furniture.....looking to take out Pottery Barn, LOL
