Hi all

I'm Jarrod . I'm mainly here for help with prices and selling my late fathers woodworking gear. he sadly passed away last Oct, and has left behind a whole workshop of machines and hand tools , wood and lots more. My brother and I have the task of trying to sell everything we want to sell .

So any help from the forum would be great.

Thanks

Regards Jarrod

Welcome, Jarrod.

A sad business, disposing of a loved one’s possessions. I’m sure some members local to you will be along soon to offer advice as to the value of your Dad’s tools and timber.

My own experience is that this forum is a good place to buy and sell anything to do with woodworking. Lots of pictures and information will always help.

Regards,

Brian

Hi Jarrod,

condolences on your loss. There are a few forum members who live in the Blue Mountains, including me. Where abouts are you? Let us know what help you’re looking for, and I’m sure people on here will offer assistance.

cheers,

Many of us know what it's like to lose some one.

The LUNA combo is of interest but I honestly don’t think I’d have the space or ability to get it up to me unfortunately. I’m interested in photos of the SN460 bandsaw when the ad is listed and a price also

Cheers

Hi Jarrod,
I knew your Dad, and I lived close by before I moved interstate last year. I did not know him very well, but well enough to know that he was a real craftsman and very discerning when it came to tools and equipment. I was very sad to hear that he had passed away.
To members of the forum: When this gear comes up, be assured that it would have been very carefully researched, selected and maintained by a trained craftsman.
