Scrappile Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 In Washington state. This is a type one. If I had the money and it was good I'd own it even though I don't need it. http://moseslake.craigslist.org/tls/5815090802.html amazingkevin 1 Quote
Lucky2 Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 Paul, it's only a good deal, if you really need it. I don't know about you, but, I know I already own enough clutter. Len Quote
JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 That is a good deal if it works well. If it is a type #1 it is worth a little more. Those were the originals. Make for a good standby if you had the room. Quote
Scrolling Steve Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 It almost looks too good to be true ! Quote
SCROLLSAW703 Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 personally, being its a DeWalt, I wouldn't touch it, but, if it really does have just 10 minutes on it, either they don't like scrolling, or there's somethin' wrong with it. jmo. Quote
WayneMahler Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 Looks like it would be good back up saw, proving it's in good shape. Looking for one I can take to shows and not worry about. Moving the EX-21 is a real pain :( Quote
ike Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 I paid $150 for a type 1 DW 788 and it is my back up saw. when my saw was down for 3 weeks I made sure I hd a back up ike Quote
JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 I paid $150 for a type 1 DW 788 and it is my back up saw. when my saw was down for 3 weeks I made sure I hd a back up ike I did the same thing. It was one of those deals too good to let go. Paid $150 and it was brand new. Got it when Home Depot was selling them out. Made a great deal on it with stand and it too is a back up for me. With blades and all it would definitely be worth it. That is if it works well. 30 hours is not even breaking in time. Quote
stu Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 bought one 5 or 6 years ago for $125 been taking up space and collecting dust but the other one needs work now. glad I have spare now stu Quote
Rockytime Posted October 9, 2016 Report Posted October 9, 2016 I have two old Hawks in excellent condition. For the amount of scrolling I do I only need one but one cannot have to many tools. It's a guy thing. Quote
meflick Posted October 10, 2016 Report Posted October 10, 2016 . . . one but one cannot have to many tools. It's a guy thing. emphasis added You are right - one cannot have too many tools - but as far as it being a guy thing - no, not really. My husband would be happy to confirm that. Quote
amazingkevin Posted October 11, 2016 Report Posted October 11, 2016 In Washington state. This is a type one. If I had the money and it was good I'd own it even though I don't need it. http://moseslake.craigslist.org/tls/5815090802.html All my Dw788's had not a scratch on them,All had the same story,couple hours or less use.All had a price i couldn't refuse from $100 to $250.All started to knock shortly after the amazing kevin started knocking down tall wood piles to short ones.Is there a common denominator in saws i buy or is it me?I'm sure they just need to be re greased with synthetic grease.I do tend to wear gloves after scrolling long hours from the heat build up,lol Lucky you ! I need to get into my stack and regrease them an press out two bearings per machine Quote
