About three and a half weeks ago I jumped on a pretty good G0555 Bandsaw deal on craigslist (http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=111987&highlight=adopted).
Now today I scored a G1023s Table Saw for $450! Wooo!
Got her home and unloaded in one piece, and immediately started field stripping her for some cleaning and TLC. (I even forgot to take a 'before' picture prior to removing the rails and extension wings)
She seems to be in pretty good condition - there's no rust anywhere that wont come off with some light buffing.
I did some dusting and cleaning, but cant fire up the shop vac for fear or waking the neighbors at this time of night.
I can't wait to get her all shined up and ready to go - too bad I dont yet have 220v out to my garage, err, shop. I guess that's the next project, and til then Im stuck using my Jet contractor. This is like buying a new sports car and all the gas stations are closed! :mad:
