[QUOTE="Echo-Star, post: 1465130, member: 29926"] Evening all I was looking through ad's on facebay the other day, and seen an AGS 12 for sale £500 and on a whim I messaged the guy and said I'd take it for the five if he'd deliver. The guy near bit my hand off, It came from a hospital in Glasgow apparently and the two lads that delivered the saw told me Its the second one they have sold this week. I proceeded to tell them about the drill that I tried to buy a few weeks ago, and asked if It was them. Nah wasn't us mate, someone's at it, as our boss has the contract for all the hospitals. the guys told there boss who messaged me enquiring about It, told him the story and got talking, so now he is look out for another couple of machines I'm after. So if you look at a 100 quid for delivery, I've got the 12 for 4 big notes. Here's some pic's I don't have a drive, so the machine was unloaded onto the street for me to donkey to the WS though had to be dismantled for this to happen as I have #2 steps on entry to footpath. the wiring, so no trip to Glasgow,,,,/trunnion and support casting mount, motor and base unit/dust extraction OH & internals, R&S worm drive, mitre fence [ATTACH]108261[/ATTACH][ATTACH width="394px"]108262[/ATTACH][ATTACH width="390px"]108263[/ATTACH] rip fence, R&F wheel and F plate,,,,/damage to rip and mitre Fence knob,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,/Trunnion was full of saw dust, slide bracket guide retainer [ATTACH]108267[/ATTACH][ATTACH width="400px"]108266[/ATTACH][ATTACH]108265[/ATTACH] I'm in no great rush to get this refurb project completed, I enjoyed doing the 10 so I'll just take my time with this one.
