Oh if only I hadn't spent my tool allowance already!

Good stuff on my craigslist today, someone selling a whole shop of woodturning equipment including a Powermatic 3520 lathe for $4,000!

GO buy it anyways, ask for forgiveness later. That is a deal good enough to risk your marriage. Um, I meant too good to pass up.

[Bill Rogers]

How many tools is he selling and how much does it work out to per tool? If it is a good deal then you could always buy the entire lot and sell off what you don't need or already have. Just a thought.

forgiveness is easier to get than permission...lol

But I do know that my wife has started putting the clamps down on me and I really cant blame her... I am having fun and making stuff but just dont seem to be making money, I told her that a hobby isnt about making money, she dint buy it...lol

[Jim Rimmer]

Maybe he will throw in the bandsaw, too.

Haha I think that's about where I am too Karl.. the wife has definitely put the breaks on my tool acquisitions after finding me that jointer the other day. Oh well I guess I can't win them all and have to learn to let a good tool deal walk away.. sigh!

[Don Jarvie]

That WT lathe is a good deal at 300. Unless your a serious turner the WT will do everything you need to and then some.

[Don Bullock]

I feel your pain!!!! My budget's been shot for quite some time. Sometimes we just have to let someone else get that great deal. Others will come along.

[Mike Cruz]

I totally agree. NONE of you should go take advantage of this. Now...what was the name of that shipping company I was told about? :D No, this isn't the deal I'm after... Have at it!
