Picked these up for a Benjamin. The router looks almost unused. Guy even through in a pack of sanding belts send a brand new pattern bit. I usually insist on haggling, I feel like not doing so is rude, it's like not saying hello. But on this case I actually had to insist that he be aware of gore low the prices were.

That's too good of a deal, makes me think that they could be stolen. That's $700 worth of new gear.

Yes, stolen by johnny means.

Well not really stolen since he paid what the guy was asking. So let's just say he got two workhorse tools for a steal. They don't even look like they were ever used.

you still got it? I loved that saw. It won't leave here. I keep a Woodmaster CT 1.3 on it for resawing. Operates as good as a new one. We made these Cypress shingles with it, running 10,000 lineal feet through it as fast as they could be pushed-2 seconds per two 28" shingles with a tapering sled.

Seems you're getting better use out of it than I ever would. Glad to see that.
