Got a steal today. The local woodcraft closed its doors forever a couple of weeks ago. Today they held a fire sale for all of the equipment that they didn’t want to ship to their other locations. I came home with a new Jet 13″ planer/molder. Regularly retails for $869, I brought it home for $350. They had a 36″(bed length) Jet lathe for $299 that looked real nice, and a 3 horse powermatic 66 with the excalibur sliding table for $1600. I don’t need another tablesaw so I passed on it, and for some reason lathes scare the @#$@#$ out of me. The planer made it worth the trip.

Scott: should of picked up that PM66, especially with the sliding table. That unit would sell for over $2500 in a store , you could of sold it in a day if you ran a ad in the paper or on knots.. The unit it self is about $2200. good luck on your buy.
