This is the same guy that I purchased my small knee mill from. I guess he is liquidating.

FWIW, If someone decides to buy this I have a contact for a very affordable lift-gate shipping service that shipped my mill from his location in Mississauga to Ottawa for $250, seemed like a bargain. Kevin - Cardinal Transportation, they fill up trucks with a bit of remaining space, This Kevin fellow provided great service. The seller put it on a skid and wrapped it all up in plastic. All in all it was a great remote purchase.
