    Isolating motor vibration- phase converter, What to use?

    Opportunity at a Reed 3CA... Opinions?

    What to pay for Reed 4C?

    Well I found a sweet Reed 4C on CL that looks fairly nice. Except it has a foot broken off of the swivel. I told the guy I'd give him $200 BEFORE I saw the broken foot. I thought it was a fair price for both parties. If he can find the broken foot in his shop, I am still fine with $200. Am I...
