Humorous Craigslist Posting

[Bill Rogers]

Sometimes I look at the local Craigslist ads just to see what wacky things are posted. This one may be a classic!!

What else are saws supposed to do?

Check out the third item for sale!

[Brian Kent]

I just like the hole maker.

[Bill Rogers]

That is the one that I was talking about!!

I still love the wackiest Craigslist post I ever saw- "3/4 of a gallon of Pea green paint"

This wasn't on Craigslist, but a few years ago I was traveling through Arkansas and saw this posted in the window of a country store:

FOR SALE 1993 Ford Taurus
Asking $1200
will take $900
Phone ***-****

I wonder if he got his asking price?
Maybe in Arkansas...

How is it this guy knows the difference between a band saw and a scroll saw but is clueless on what a drill press is? A hole maker? Really?

[David Nelson1]

The other 2 tools may have said what they where.

[Jim Creech]

I have a similar device but mine doesn't make holes, it only installs them.

[Brian Kent]

All I have is a drill press, Jim. Now I want a hole installer like yours.

[Bill Wiggins]

The person posting that ad obviously doesn't know what they are worth. If I didn't live in New England, I'd drive down there myself to pick them up. I can always use an extra "hole maker".

I believe that "hole maker " is a misprint, the correct sentence could be " hole marker" you mark the hole then drill it with a brace & bit

Detroit Craigs list is showing another one of those Radio arm saws. Wonder if this one get FM stations??

[Callan Campbell]

That's a good one for sure. I still laugh at the 30 lb DUNG Bell set that I saw on our local CL last year. A new and creative use for cow patties I guess.

[Jeff Nicol]

It is so good to see that I am not the only one to wonder where some people went to school! I think the band saw and the scroll saw had the words written on them, and the drill press was too generic to have a designation on it. So I guess the seller at least knew what it did when a drill bit was used to make a hole!

Laghter is good for the soul, even more when they are not laughing at you!
