Nice price.........

Considering they don't make that particular machine anymore, that is a great deal.

Man if I could get it shipped I’d buy it right now,

It's a great deal, but they do still make that model mortiser. The closed stand is also an available option.

I cannot believe that has not sold!  That is a great deal for a great machine.

Neither can I. I spoke with him today. He told me he gets calls, but they want him to pretty much give it away. He won't do that as a matter of principle.

Call them up and try to order one.

That machine was made in Taiwan.

The company was bought by the mainland Communist Chinese.

They discontinued several products made in Taiwan, and they don't know if they will ever make them again.

I tried to order one in December, and that's the story I was told.  I finally found one of the last ones at a supplier in Canada.

I contacted him and let him know I wanted to buy it but he replied that freight would be a deal killer.

Nice looking machine.
