Somebody Should Jump On This!
Think of this as replacing all the little drills in your shop, freeing up so much space!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...812722214&rd=1 edit: I just want to add that I woudl be all over this, but June is our inspection month in NH (it goes by birthday month), and we have two new vehicles to register in June. So basically my budget is tight until July. Last edited by Jeff Higgins; 05-04-2004 at 06:50 AM. |

Wowzie, Jeff, that little machine is a winner! I'm familiar with Burgmasters, and it sure would be handy for a knifemaker.
My wife is looking over my shoulder, so I'd better not bid on it. |

Just my luck that when a decent clean mint condition Burgmaster comes on the market I'm broke.
Guess I better make some knives... darn it! |

Wow! It's at about $500 now, that'd buy 5 inexpensive drill presses. It does have a tapping head on it though.

I'm tempted, but my wife would disown me. We've had a lot of other people's problems lately, and they've about cleaned me out. Last edited by Don Robinson; 05-04-2004 at 06:17 PM. |

That's a tough break Don, (other people's problems). I've been involved in that at times also, trying to help out.
Wish I knew what it'd go for, but that's what ebay is all about I guess. I'd like to have it because I think it'd have some resale value later on, but I've already spent over my allowance getting started in this hobby, I'm afraid I'd get neutered. |

It brought $810. Probably a steal.

All in all, when you look at the $800 that cost, vs the $1500 it would cost you for a single-spindle Clausing, that Burgmaster was a steal. I just hope it went to a fellow knifemaker! |
