Or so it appears . . .

This is the only one of these I've seen. Thought it might be of interest to someone here. If someone does pick it up, I would love to see a picture of it mounted. I'd pick it up myself just out of curiosity but my DP has been modified to hang from the ceiling making it impractical.

I am not the seller of this item. Spotted it on Craigslist over the weekend.

Go to the Woodnet.com web site. That is where the woodworkers hang out. Many old machine collecdtors on there.

Then go to the Woodnet.com what all the big boys and professionals hang out. You can buy and sell anthing there. someone will know what it goes to and I am sure you can sell it at one of those 2 places. Booth good places. The big boys board has members from MIT, Yale, Harvard and all the CEO's of industrial woodworking companies. It really is where you can get the formula for a spiral oval stair case. someone asked the question and someone professor form Yale psted the formula.

You just are not in the right location.

The third place is Mytractorforum.com It is the best place on the planet for farm machinery. They help everyone rebuld everthing form hand mowers to monster tractors. Greatest forum on the web.

There is a huge woodworking site down in Australia. That forum is huge. They have welding, woodworking, boats machinery and everthing in between. If anyone is looking for a foreign made tool that is the place to go.

Hope you find a home for it. I am sure with those 4 places you will.

Thanks for the links. I will check them out. This I only posted as an 'FYI' because there are Craftsman guys here who have helped me out in the past. As noted, I am not the seller, just passing it along. :pimpflash

Hey, what was the third one, you included woodnet.com twice? And the Australian forum?

JasonW,

Good find. I've been watching that on the C'List and even contacted the seller. Unfortunately he's several hours from me so I've been hoping I'd get a reason to make it down to LA so I could pick it up. He also had another item or two I was interested. Maybe next month!

It is a unique item. Would be nice to know it's history. I am convinced Sears had an industrial catalog that had items and / or combinations of items that were not marketed to the home users. I purchased a Craftsman floor saw with an extra long fence guide that does not show up in the catalogs I've seen. You could order it in three pieces but not as a single one.

I do hope you find a reason to come down and get it. Where specifically is the item located?
