Marketplace…

First… they say we ‘will’ have snow; then, we won’t. Then, they say we ‘might’ have snow; then, we don’t… Our weather has become incredibly fickle…
Now they say, “Maybe Saturday.” 
We will see how long that prediction will hold…

Now to our daily adventure…

Facebook has a section called Marketplace. I had been avoiding it; while Scott had been perusing it on a regular basis. 

He informed me that he saw a band saw for sale. A twelve inch Craftsman for a ridiculously low price. He needs a band saw to make the curves and irregular shapes we will have on some of our woodwork. A twelve inch band saw was just what he needed. But, Scott was hesitating.

“Call them and see if it is available,” I encouraged.

Apparently, on the Facebook marketplace section, when you are interested, you send a message. He sent one. We waited. Shortly, he learned it was still available.

Since it was late (by our standards) to start a road trip, we made arrangements to pick it up the next afternoon. Turns out it was in the basement. The lovely older gentleman was selling it to close out the estate of his brother. To bring it up the stairs, it needed to be taken apart. We did not have the necessary tools with us.

“Could we come back tomorrow to pick it up?” 

To be continued…
