I picked up a 1985 Shopsmith 510 for $100 last Saturday. I only wanted the motor but it was more than 95% complete. I was able to use several additional items since I have a "Greenie" that I upgraded to a 520. I discarded most of the table. I could have taken the time to list items on eBay but I work the Graveyard shift. 1 Benjamin Franklin for a motor works for me. -Derek

Picked up my Jet 6" jointer a few weeks ago. Cherry condition, but needed new blades. $300 was a good deal.
I have a desktop icon that I click for Craigslist.

I just picked up a Delta 12" planner for $200. It was in great condition and came with two new blades.

It is not cold, it is business. The man was under no obligation to sell for the price offered. He decided it was the best he could do and accepted it. We all make mistakes in buying tools. With careful consideration we all do well because of the diversity of craigslist.

Last week, I purchased a Porter Cable 6" circular saw for $20 on Craigslist. Other than some minor rust on the base plate, it's seen very little use. It's very light and handy.

On Ebay they sell for $50 to 80 used.

So, I second the commnts about watching Craigslist

I took a peep at our West Australian Craigs list today, not a single tool!
