You'll just have to pick up whatever you're reading this on and turn it sideways for some of the pictures I guess.
Welp, I pulled the trigger on a router.
Weeke Vantech 480
I bought it from a shop auction in South Dakota. The owner was retiring. I wasn't planning on purchasing much else this year. It has been an exceptional year business wise, and I had already pumped probably $50k into equipment, so I wasn't looking to spend much more. I had to borrow, and I hate borrowing money.
Dust collection will be handled by a 7.5hp Oneida cyclone that showed up the other day.
Day of the auction.
The day the riggers came to pick it up about two weeks later.
The riggers had this trailer that was pretty cool. It was on hydraulics and could be raised, lowered and tilted. They picked up the back of the trailer, set it on the dock door, and just we just rolled the machine on skates out onto the deck. Pretty darn slick.
On the trailer
Tilting the trailer to get the fork truck back on.
Orion Rigging out of Sioux Falls South Dakota did the move.
Set in place, and leveled out. Hopefully spot on leveled out.
Panels bolted back on.
