Comments:

I was searching Craigslist for wood shapers and stumbled across this. It had a blurry picture and short description saying that it was headed to scrap if someone didn't come get it. I couldn't resist and bought the thing with uses only to be thought about later. It is an incredible machine weighing in at about 8000 lbs.
