Last week I drove up to VA and bought out most of the tools and wood from someone who was retiring to FL. It was too good a deal to pass up, but now I've got a problem.
I have it all in my storage unit, and it will 6 months to a year before the space will be ready for the stuff. (we're building a new house). The storage unit isn't conditioned, and I'm worried about rust.
The main tools are a Minimax CU410 elite 5 function slider and a MM16 bandsaw. The 410 has some large cast iron tables and various other steel bits that could be susceptible.
Coat with wax? oil? leave it alone and clean it up when installing? Find someone to 'loan' the tools to who has conditioned space with easy access?
Thanks in advance.
PS- I'm also looking for a decent way to estimate flooring yield from a stack of rough cut lumber. I now have enough walnut to last me forever...and I'm thinking about just taking it somewhere to get made into flooring for the new house.
