This morning it was a 24" explosion-proof exhaust fan for $35. This afternoon, I went to check out a Delta 40-560 scroll saw and stand. The lady wanted $50 for it. When I arrived, I found that it was a little rough. I started explaining that it shouldn't be all rusty, I'd have to replace the air bellows, the arm was a bit sticky. She just sighed and said "look, I have no use for it. My son left it here, I was going to just throw it out but my daughter said I should at least try to sell it. She put it on the internet. Would you give me $5 for it?"

I think I'll need to replace the bladeholder. I know I need a new bellows (about $10). But it seems to run good and as you can see the cast iron table is cleaning up very nicely with some TopSaver. I'm pretty happy ...

Why didn't you charge her to dispose of it? A little elbow grease and it's a winner.
