In the last year:

PM66 table saw, jet jjscx 6 inch jointer, pm 73 dust collector for $1200 (not too bad of a price I thought)

Pneumatic press - $40 This would cost me well over a thousand to build and it weighs about 700 lbs. Will be perfect for veneering

And my best gloat is a PM 27 5hp shaper for $180

[Shawn Morley]

Lots of great finds.

14" Sliding Table Saw
37" Wide Belt Sander
18" Jump Saw
80 Gallon Two Stage Compressor
C.R. Onsrud Inverted Pin Router (there big one)

That was all for $3500, I sold all but three of them and more then made my money back.

Most recent was a 5hp Torit cyclone with baghouse and over a hundred feet of spiral pipe, fittings and blast gates for $850. Just finished the wiring on that tonight.

I love craigslist.

Doncha know it! I'm gonna try redheads. Anybody got a coupon?

Maybe Eliot Spitzer can help.

You're doing it wrong.

[Steve Bagi]

[Keith Avery]

A Delta 33-410 16 inch RAS for $225. I spent about 200 to get it in like new condition and some time, but considering it cost 6k new I am very happy.

[Kent E. Matthew]

A Delta Hybrid cabinet saw for 500. I thought is was a Uni when I bought it. Checked the serial number and discovered it was a hybrid. I'm very happy with the purchase. It has done everything I've asked it to do. Got a Delta DJ-15 in perfect condition from an Air Force officer for 400. They were shipping him off to Thailand so he needed to lighten the load. I have passed on some great deals too. Just didn't have the disposable income at the time.

[Rick Markham]

Van, must be shopping on the same Craigslist as I do, nothing but garbage around here... But I almost had...

A "hydraulic bord stretcher" ($500)

A "Blade Desharpener" ($150)

A whole bunch of cinderblocks ($1 each) unfortunately I requested too much information on the cinder block deal, and was denied the deal of a lifetime

(sorry I couldn't resist)

I still check multiple times a day hoping for that one good deal to finally show up, probably will happen when I am flat broke
