I may be selling several tools in the near future. Now, most of them like band saws, scroll saws, etc., are easy to price, but I have a couple tools that I may end up selling, and have no clue what they are worth.
The first is an RBI 12" planer/sander/gang saw/molder. It has the upgraded 5 HP motor, and about 22 sets of molding cutters. It is in good working condition, but the homebuilt molding guide/table needs to be replaced.
The other one is a Ryobi resaw/bandsaw. It is a weird duck, having a 1 1/2 or 2" wide stellite blade, and the motor looks like it belongs on a skill saw....but it is the original one, that's the way they came...really noisy. The odd thing though is that it is made for resawing, but only cuts about 6" thick boards. I know dad paid around $2000 for it (again, maybe around 1985), but I sure don't know what it is good for, since my 14" Delta resaws 12". Perhaps someone could clue me in on what good it is.
I apologize if this sounds like a stealth classified ad. It isn't meant to be. I haven't even decided if I am really going to sell these tools yet, but if I do, I would appreciate some input on what they are worth.
