    A couple of pieces of nice white oak, a chunk of 8/3 Cherry, some shelf pins, a few false drawer front screws, and a set of carbide knives for an 8" jointer. The board standing up is 5/4 Mahogany just over 5" wide and 12' long

        Looks like $100 well spent.

                What are you talking about? It looks like it's already in his shop!

                Nice score, Pappy!

                  Heck, I would have paid almost $100 just to have someone help me get it in the truck in addition to what I paid for the sander!!

                      Nice Haul!

                      The edge sander looks great.

                        Actually, this is the G1140 but Tom added the wood table similar to what comes on the G0512 model. The table top has some serious wear so I will either cut it down or scrap it completely. Another option is to make a top that can be easily put on and removed to reduce the overall foot print when not in use.

                        This is the stock configuration.
