    Default Wadkins - It never rains, but it pours.

    A few weeks ago, out of seven Wadkin machines listed on Trademe, four were CK (or BCK) radial arm saws.

    This week it's raining FD four-siders...

    This one is in Dunedin (S.I.)

    While this one is in Hastings (N.I.)

    Okay, so that's only two - but in value and weight, these two exceed the four CKs.

    If anybody needs me to go attach a postage stamp to one, just let me know...

    Oh Vann, you know how to tease me.
    Show me my favorite woodworking machine, and then put some distance and ocean in the mix.

    Yeah, you may need to slightly over-inflate the tyres on your trailer before attempting to cross the Ditch - especially if you're picking up both in one trip...
