Which model/size Jet? I'm in Weiser, ID. Outside of the Portland, Seattle and Vancouver areas, the Pacific Northwest is pretty dry when it comes to old machine tools. I've recently made trips to Winnemucca and Fallon, Nevada and Spray, Oregon getting lathes, a mini mill and a bunch of tooling. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
