Saw this on CL this morning. All it says in the listing is, "Moving need to sell."

Any thoughts on sending faxes while ripping?

Maybe use the scan/copy for duplicate parts:)

Maybe you can scan and enlarge parts you cut too small. That would be the greatest thing ever!!!!

My boss should buy that! He's always trying to get us to flatten skim planed twisted 5/4 that starts at 1 3/16" to 1 1/8", and sometimes we have to make two 48" stair treads out of 8' WO that has 12" of checks and cracks on each end to start with! This thing would be perfect. Perhaps we could scan the boards, photo shop out the checks and twists, enlarge 25%; it sounds like the ultimate board stretcher. Jump on that one quick!

We have one of those at the office with the blade/copy/fax stop feature to boot! the only problem is when in copy mode if you place your hand under the cover to hold a large drawing or piece of paper the machine senses your hand and engages the copy brake.....happens 10-12 times a day.

Don't buy it!!!! I had one of those and it worked fine for about the first week. After that, every time I ran copies or tried to get FAXes it kept cutting the copies in half. I could never get it to stop. I finally sold it on Craigslist. I don't know who the poor sap who bought it was.....

Oh, I don't know...maybe it would be great for repeated cuts. :D:D Jim.

This particular model is obsolete.
