    I must sell off my shop

    Health issues have made it impossible to work in the shop.
    Everything is located in Seattle. Some can be shipped but most will be a pick up by the buyer.
    BT3000 w/mobile base
    Jet JDP17MF drill press w/mobile base
    Jet JBS14CS band saw w/mobile base
    Jet 1014 lathe w/bed extension
    Bench Dog 40-001 router table
    PC 693PK router
    PC 895PK router
    De Walt DW733 thickness planer

    Tons of other power tools but to much to list here.
    I have no set prices on any of this, everything is in like new condition, I am open to offers.
    Contact me by e-mail if you would like more information.

    Wow Dick, That's got to be one of the hardest things to have to do. But of course your health takes priority.

    Hope everything works out for the best,

      Dick,

      I know how tough it is to do, I recently unloaded most of my WW tools as well. (Still have a BT3100) Take my advice, don't drop off the forum just because you're no longer a BT3'er, you'll surely miss it!

          If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

              Sorry to hear about your decision. All the woodworking tools in the world are worthless if your not healthy to use them. Putting your health ahead of woodworking is the smart move.

              I see several things I like but Seattle is a little to far to drive from Ohio, and the shipping would kill any deal. I'm sure you wont have trouble selling your stuff. Seems like a fair number of people on this site out your way.

              Plan for the worst, hope for the best!

                  Sorry to hear about your ill health and I agree with TheRic. Your health is definitely more important. I will miss seeing your beautiful pens that you posted in the past.

                  Get well soon,

                    Dick,
                    I am very sorry to hear that. I would gladly take those tools off your hands, but Seattle from Cape Cod is a bit far.

                    Do us all a favor and listen to Sam- don't drop off the board just because you gave up some tools! It would be our loss.

                    I get so excited picking up a new tool- I can't imagine the loss of a tool that I was so happy to get. Those are some great tools you have.

                    Get better Dick- I wish you the best!

                      I am sorry to hear about this, Dick! Your health definitely takes prescedence over anything but I can't even imagine how you are feeling right now. Always remember that we will always be here for you. Sam is right that you don't have to stop coming here because you're letting go of the hobby. Take good care of yourself, Friend!
