DO NOT TALK...

Why does the blade welder and electrical boxes look pretty and everything else does not?

Because it has been upgraded.

Probably been in the family 2 generations. Can’t put a price tag sentimental value.

sure i can put a price on sentiment,
if it doesn't sell for 5K you are too sentimental and need a reality check

We bought one new for $10K in 78 and this one is quite a bit older than our was judging from the cast cover instead of sheet metal. Probably a good saw and OBO means there's room to haggle

I looked at that saw on CL , i’ed have to build a floor on top of it to relocate other machines .

The seller is delusional.
There is no way the saw is worth 5K
The seller confuses cast iron with gold

$ Is not my currency, but I know that is tooooooo much. Funny remark Ulma docktor.

Looks like it has been in the elements for 2 generations

Some one has cut the bottom of the sticker off. the word " Operator" has ben cut off.

I thought maybe it was a Stephen King machine along the lines of The Mangler.
