here are a couple of tools i've picked up . the band saw came from the tampa wood working show, and the shaper came from a local yard sale.

That shaper looks as old as the bandsaw. Nice hunting. I wish I liked warm weather so I could go to yard sales in a retirement area.
Any day I wake up is a good day.

Wow! Did you say "YARD SALE"? As in used furniture, old clothes, dishes, toys, and SHAPERS? Sure beats the heck out of any yard sale I've been to.

YARD SALE!!!! Where was it--between the $0.50 polyester and the $0.75 1960's glassware!!!! Yeeks, what a find!!!
Kinda reminds me of my college days...It's trash day in the rich neighborhoods, lets go furniture shopping....lol

You took the words right out of my mouth. I've never see a shaper or any other nice machine like that at any yard sales I've driven passed, much less the ones I've stopped at.Originally Posted by Brad Townsend
