Had a great day at a auction yesterday.I scored a Tri-star 16speed full size drillpress,HDC 14" Bandsaw,1984Shopsmith with bandsaw.All for $263.75.My garage became so crowded that I had to buy a steel shed to make some more room to rearrange stuff.I already have a SS but this one is newer so now I have a quieter unit and spare parts.As I was loading it up a lady came up to me and offered me another SSfor $50.So i might just have a whole bunch of extra parts.

:bananen_smilies068: A note of caution from lessons learned. Metal sheds tend to rust any metal you store in them if they do not have proper venting due to the condensation caused by the heating and cooling of the metals. You can buy bags of compound that you hang in the shed that will take the water out of the air. I use it in my workshop and tool boxes for this purpose. Jim S
