But you know, I was shocked with the poor cut the first time I ran a board through the 20" after having just installed sharp new blades and aligning everything to w/in .003!!!! I forgot that without a Shelix I had to start thinking about grain and feed direction of the wood again, which I didn't need to do much of with the Shelix!!!! If I was "in the business" however, there would be no question, a Shelix would be on that thing in a heart beat; no waiting for any stinkin' economic stimulus rebate. | |

Quite the successful bear hunter, eh?
Well, I think this makes it official: You are in the big leagues now
Major congrats on the major acquisitions. Go Grizzlies,
Roger

The deal just got a little sweeter, with an extra set of knives for the planer and several big rolls of sandpaper for the sander. All FREE!!!! | |

Well, I reckon you managed to get it all unloaded OK.
Nice score

Tom, I'm GREEN with envy and jealousy! Awesome finds -- you'll love the drum sander, especially if you can get the VS conveyor drive worked out. They come standard on my Woodmaster (a 26" single drum I picked up 18 months ago for $750) and it really gives you great control on the finish.
