Good Used Tools/equip For 1/2 Of Retail


Howdy, I'm a new guy to the forum. Still do a little carpentry for some friends, but I've just about converted to doing lutherie and some furniture building/repair. Need money to reinvest in different tools.

Anyhow, I'd like to sell the following (basically 1/2 of retail price):

Occidental Leather 8080L Oxy Lights Pro-Framer toolbelt - asking $80.

and a,

Max SN890CH/34 Clipped Head 2-Inch to 3-1/2-Inch Framing Nailer - asking $150.

Both of these are in very good condition; used solely by me in my too short-lived home renovation/contracting business (which explains why I'm doing mostly woodworking now). Gun has few scratches, mainly from being stored in the toolbox, and the belt has a couple of dried glue smears, one small white paint smear, and indentations on the belt where my suspenders clip on. I can take and email photos if you want.

If someone lived close enough (I'm in SW Georgia) to meet in person I'm also selling my portable Dewalt Hvy-Duty compressor and a 30' poly hose on a Rapid Reel.

I'd love to be able to sell the whole nine yards in one deal, and someone could get about $850 worth (discount retail value) of good equipment for less than 1/2 price, $400. For 4 bills cash I'd deliver them to Atlanta (or equivalent driving time) from here in Albany, GA.

Yeah, I looked at it some today - looks great and I plan to start posting soon!

Funny how though I'm getting out of the "trade" I've been out in the cold wind and rain patching my own roof the last day or two. Oh well. I love carpentry and would like to live in a house I built myself one day.
