That thing is 40 cm wide :eek: (16") and 76" long, has a 2 hp 3 phase 200V motor.....

Man, if I did not have the Green Meanie lurking under my workbench..... :D

Oh yeah, 3 minutes left on the auction, no one has bid, and it is at 30,000 yen, or $272....

Cheers!

Wow! You could straighten out the curvature of the earth with that. What's with the iddy bitty fence though?

Dunno, but I think this would be more for face flattening than making 90s on the edges of boards....

Big boy ain't it :D

Hey Stu, is this a Japan item.

I wonder what the shipping charges would be if Dev decided on that aircraft carrier. :D

Guys I would have "Gone for it" and it would have fit "Down the hatch" (These things come apart you know) but really the 8" wide Green Meanie is really as wide as I need....Really.......Honestly......no kidding......

OK, I'll be honest, I'm still busted, broke and have some work to do before I can bend the Dungeon budget much more.....:o

Cheers!
