A Baldor Grinder... is now mine! So I spotted this one on my local CL and I am pretty sure that it is a Baldor, although hard to tell since the tag has fallen off. I am thinking that it is a Baldor from the bottom tag with the arbor sizes listed, I am hoping someone on here might have a similar...

So with all this restore and machine work I am getting myself into I am finding myself more and more in need of a small metal lathe and mill. They could be separate machines or a combo unit, but I was wandering if anyone had preferences for some nice vintage ones to do some work on machine parts?

Wow, these guys just popped up on my local CL, after I was just reminiscing about my old Craftsman Circular Saw. It is the exact same look as my old saw... looks like I won't be able to pass this one up... Now to see if I can pick them up for a reasonable price. He is asking $50 for the sheet...

UPDATE: Value of another Craftsman Block Grinder OK so now that I have found out that I need a Craftsman block grinder as well to ad to my stable I came across this guy. Way overpriced at the moment in my opinion, but I am working to calibrate my values here. Things I noticed off the bat...

I had been looking for a old Craftsman bench top drill press on Craigslist. Well I stumbled across this post on Craigslist. It was actually a posting for a metal shear and at the end of the post he said "oh yeah I also have an old Craftsman drill press for $100". Well I asked for pictures and...

At the risk of becoming a vintage table saw Junkie I am going to take a look at a 7" Sears/Dunlap table saw this evening. This gal is just so small and cute I don't know if I could pass her up! I would need to find a motor (preferably a period motor), but I would still think the rest would be a...

So if found this while surfing around my Local Craigslist (Near Charlotte NC). A vintage Wissota model E14 bench grinder. To be honest I don't know much about them other than I really liked the look of it. Something about it's shape and lines is just really appealing to me. Were these know as...

Well look what followed me home today. I picked this girl up off of Craigslist, it was a bit of a drive but I think it was worth it. I paid $200 for it and it had all the original accessories and some additions with the exception of the safety guard. The paint is in pretty good shape for its...

Picked up an Ex-cell Pressure Washer... Pump DOA OK so I have been looking around on Craigslist for a pressure washer and I came across an Ex-cell EXPRO2530. It is 2500psi @ 3gpm, just about perfect for the typical around the house stuff I am looking to clean. Has a nice Honda GX200 motor and a...
