We do not see many rock estate sales around here. As a mater of fact this is the first I have seen listed in three years. I drove out Monday night and took a look at and all of the equipment was mounted to one really long custom bench so I could not really take it that way. The seller agreed to take it all apart for me so I went back to today to pick it up. The rock collection was not very large but there were some cool things in the mix for sure. I am heading to the cottage for the weekend but should be able to start cleaning some stuff up next week. Most of the equipment will be up for sale. Frantom 10" saw, too large poly arbors with hoods, one smaller poly arbor and two arbors with 8" polish pads that were originally mounted in tandem from one motor. I was busy so my 10 year old got to unpack all the rocks and enjoy the treasure hunt Chuck

Its always fun to get it home and see what it is you did get. And to see what kind of equipment others manage to use in relation to yours. Enjoy your find (and day). Tom

good score, Up in our area estate sales like this are so far and few between also, I always go through the rocks later as there is always too many surprises in the rocks and it takes a few times going through the rocks to absorb all of the hidden treasures
