I gave a 1000 dollar bench saw to a smallish mens shed,a beaut 5 feet cylinder compressor,a special micrometer set up for a router bench, A solid bearing press etc. Four guys came over and did the heavy lifting. I had taken off the 3 phase motor on the saw, They found a single phase and yesterday at their regular shed day assembled, lined up and tuned the saw. I spoke on the phone with the main guy last night as he brought me up to date. I offered them a large Woodfast lathe with Vic Marc Vacuum chuck, various chucks etc, a beaut bench drill, double ended 8 inch grinder, an oscillating stem sander and another half dozen pieces of equipment when I can reach them, they are over the moon. The cast top on the saw was in show room condition ,I always kept it this way using Camelia Oil. The other half of the mens shed spat the dummy a while back, came in and emptied their shed over night.
