Well I find myself in a bit of a predicament. I tossed out an offer a few weeks ago on some equipment in Charlotte on a private auction and never heard back; figured I'd lost. Got contacted today saying that I won both items. A 14" Rockwell wood/metal band saw and a floor mount drill press.
These as pictured:
My father was going to assist from Shelby (with a truck) but is now unavailable.
I have access to a van or I may rent a truck or trailer. I have a trailer hitch on my car but it is a light duty hitch, I've only used it for a bike rack and not sure how well my car will handle a loaded trailer (VW Jetta). Not sure which would be better. I do have trailer light wiring on the car. I am not sure how heavy these items will be or how best to load/unload. I would think it best to disassemble the band saw and lay it on its side, with the base, motor, and table removed to prevent damage. Drill press laying on its side.
