![]() ![]() Virtually all of my equipment these days is being prepaid by customers who want a restored machine. I'm not doing this to turn a giant profit, I just really like doing it although when I'm busy it might take a while. Others require a few weeks tearing down and rebuilding from the bottom up. Some machines require a few fixes or a modification or two to get them up and running. I really prefer to do these, I will only send someone home with a "plug and play" machine that they can plug into a receptacle and use right now. Decide what you want to end up with: A useable machine that you will hook up to a motor? A fully functional machine with a base (if applicable) and a motor? A machine that looks like it came from the factory complete with all the original bells and whistles? A machine in great shape that will last a lifetime? Almost all the restorations I do for sale fit into this category. I can tear apart and replace most everything else with usable parts. I can't do things like make a shaft for a cabochon machine or slab saw. If it has gaping holes or is just a shell with few or no parts you should recycle it. Yeah right, if someone loved their equipment it wouldn't have been left out in the rain for a decade). (I've seen the Ebay sellers call these "well loved". It can be a pretty well roached machine as long as the parts are all there. If you want to ship it here that's fine, but I will charge extra to ship it back to you.
