Way to double your inventory of things to sell. Build rustic furniture. The people who buy Chainsaw carvings generally love rustic furniture. I've built rustic furniture for 28 years. Mostly coffee tables, end tables and shelf units. Also cabinet type things. 2 years ago i decided to start building beds and heavier type things. So i bought the best setup I found. Its great. I've built 2 beds with it. They sold for $1700.00 and $1400.00 each. One had carving on the headboard and footboard. There are sawmills all over the country and I buy slabs or have my own logs slabbed for planks to build rustic furniture with. Leg stock comes from the woods or tree surgeons. This is what I have mostly been doing for a living the last 5 years. Due to declining physical health, I have to sell my set up. I paid nearly $2400.00 for all this. I will sell for $1800.00 Like new. This set up is 2 years old. You should be able to recoup your investment real quick. I hate to let this go, I am going to have to make a living some other way. You will save $600 buying this and it will last you a lifetime. Included ; 3/4" Heavy Duty Milwaukee drill, sliding carriage , 1 1/4" tenoner, 1 1/4" chamfer bit. 2 9/16" tenoner with 4 " extension to be able to cut up to an 11" tenon, 2 9/16" chamfer bit, 2 9/16" forstener bit, one set of extra blades.

If I had the cash I'd be interested Rick. I want to make all our furniture for our little cabin in the Appalachian. But as it is the land took all I had. If ya still have the stuff next year I might be tempted.

I have the outfit from Baileys But its the set up you have to hold the log and push it through the router. Works fine for the small stuff but a bit of a pain turning the big ones.

Thanks for getting back to me Rick.  What brand was that and where did you buy it originally?  MK
