air gun ant 1,666 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 I've got a pretty old table sawin my garage that I don't use and I need rid of TBH as it takes a fair bit of room up. Is anybody on here clued up on old tools? I've no idea if it's worth anything or not as I got it given so if I can sell it I'll just give the money to the old guy that gave me the saw, it's far to nice to skip it but it takes up a fair bit of room and weighs a lot! Cheers ant I'll get a pic when I get home 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers ant I'll get a pic when I get home I am the same boat, a sucker for taking old machines because i can't bear to see them scrapped. Got a huge three phase cast iron multi woodworking machine taking up the whole end of my garage looking for a good home. Also last week bought a monster Wadkin Bursgreen BGA 150 over & under belt sander that was taken out of the workshop at my work, gave my boss £50 for it. Thinking of making a belt grinder out of it but with a 5.5kw three phase motor and rollers that take a 6" belt it's possibly a bit overkill.

GruffaloGriff 1,852 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Substantial looking saw. Brook motors are the bees knees. If you can't get rid of it and decide to break it up you would get a decent price for the motor on fleabay. Probabally more than the saw with the motor left in it. Only one on there just now http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brook-Single-Phase-240v-Electric-Motor-1hp-1460-RPM-with-4-Step-Pulley-/231911509561?hash=item35ff00ce39:g:2PEAAOSwJQdXDRaH Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,495 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 . I had to clear out a carpentry workshop recently, and there was a simular saw to that one in there, the main problem I had selling it was the fact it was 240v and you are not allowed to use it anywhere, I flogged it for fifty quid in the end,it went to someone else's garage,for home use Quote Link to post Share on other sites
air gun ant 1,666 Posted April 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Yeah this is 240v and to big and fooking heavy to take to a site lol it's a workshop tool and not meant for moving about I don't think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
