No mate....... The guy was wanting a bit more than I was prepared to pay for it considering the freight up here to QLD would be pretty hefty...... I think if I was closer to go and get it....would have grabbed it with both hands.... not something you see too often.... he may still have it as there wasn't too much interest on the FB post. The one I would have really loved is that combo that's for sale at the moment on Flee Bay. That's a nice looking machine.

That machine is only 30minutes drive from where I live [emoji57]. Too bad I'm into hyco products.

If you got it at the right price it would be a great project.... not something you see too often..... I was at my saw doctors last week and he had one that looked identical but it had a different badge I think ESSA was a bit hard to see as it was covered in years of grime.

You would have loved the thicknesser that was for sale in Brisbane a few months ago..... The lady had a big old lathe that she was selling and the Hyco Thicknesser was on one end of it as far as I could see. took a while to sell too.... if only I had a shed to put all this stuff
