Hi all,
I hate to do this but times are bad here in south Florida I am closing my shop and selling all of my power tools,hand tools and Zoot stash. The large tools will be up tomorrow and the rest as I can get to them which sould be soon as I lost my job and have nothing but time.I will be listing everthing on the classified adds here on OLF and what you guys don"t want will go to E-bay. [headinwall] :cry: Everything will be priced to sell as I need to raise money for the house payments
Thanks Bob Potter

Bob,
Things seem to be bad all over, I'm sorry to hear you have to sell all your stuff. Hope you can find buyers at decent prices to get what you need.
Try not to worry.

That is sad news Bob. Maybe I can help out by buying some of your zoot.

Good luck to you,

Mike

Another reason to make the classified free to viewers and buyers. Do you have a edge sander?

I'd put your stuff up on a free-to-view woodworking classifieds section/forum as well as Craigslist or whatever your local analogue is, as well as eBay (with a buy it now or best offer listing). You'll get a lot more people viewing, and offers, on publicly accessible classifieds.

Sorry to hear that man. That is sad! Life is too dang hard! I have to work a full time job to make ends meet leaving me hardly any time to work in my shop. I have to be grateful though for that job, cause even though it is a pain in the butt, times are hard, and money is hard to come by. Hope things get better man.
