Found a general 75-050m1 for 150.00. Looks like it has never been used. Looks very nice indeed in my workshop. Same guy was selling a clear view cyclone for 700. Very frustrated, as I can not figure out a way to fit it in my shop. Even outside won't work. Came with a starter, a remote, and a ton of duct. Argh.
just thought I'd gloat a wee bit.

You didn't buy it... no pic didn't happen... :D

Hypothetically, that is certainly gloat worthy.

Pic to come. I can't believe it myself, frankly. :) It is light years beyond the delta it's replacing. Best part, I sold the delta for 150. So I guess it was free.

Great price. I bought a barely used Jet for about the same price and I thought that I got a pretty good deal, you win hands down!!

This goes beyond "you suck" I think it is actually an "I hate you" I just paid 500 for a new one after watching cl for almost a year.

Nice score.
Why do you think the cyclone won't fit in your shop? is it because of height? I've a basement shop and have fit it there (with a 93" ceiling).

Don't rub it in. There was no way I could fit it in my shop. Or put it outside. Seriously upset about that to be sure.

For the doubters here is the mortiser. Sorry it's so crappy, blackberries are lousy cameras.

So can I gloat now?

I have an 87" ceiling even through the joists above the garage. it would have been too tight.

You can always gloat without a picture, I for one just won't tell you how much you suck.


YOU SUCK!

You didn't miss anything, building a new shop to fit it would have cost you way to much money for the cyclone to be gloatworthy...

Your wisdom is unassailable. However I now see a missed opportunity to ask loml if I can build a freestanding shop. Even could have made it look like a cost saving measure.....

Man, if your game is that strong you probably don't need the cyclone to make it happen! Think about it the LEAST you should be able to do is convince her that it is a zero sum game, who could argue about getting a free shop?
