[MakeLV] Woodworking Tool Auction

Thu Jun 28 15:29:34 CDT 2012

Hey, It's on sale!  And we can save another 225 bucks on shipping.  All we need is a couple of guys and a half-ton pickup truck to go pick it up...
Wait - scratch that - make it a 3/4 ton truck...
Wait - scratch that again - Anyone know someone with a semi???
