A $240 tool? By the time a user has had it shipped, paid a rental fee, and shipped it back, they're halfway there. Also consider if it's usps it's only insured for $50 if you don't pay extra.
That also looks like a tool that could have the functions essentially duplicated with a cheap 3d print pretty easily. Or, if you're paying for a rental and headache of learning and using a new tool (that you aren't even going to keep) the functions could also be duplicating by paying someone with a cnc machine to do it in only a few minutes.
Something more expensive like dominos, duo dowellers, track saws, heavy duty sanders and dust extractors, a pantorouter, and the like, maybe I could see, but shipping would be killer.
On the flip side most expensive tools have storage considerations or consumable parts. Imagine someone breaking bits on a domino because they don't have a dust extractor connected. Or someone rents a spray gun and then finish sets inside of it.
And most woodworkers like owning tools. I feel like if it was a function they didn't enjoy or care about doing again they would farm out the job, not rent the tool.
