I guess this is just a heads up to anyone on the hunt in Chicagoland. There is a a Delta/Rockwell jointer - looks to be 6" or 8" for $300.00. I'm not afiliated in any way and the guy posted no details - just saw this posting on CL today. Feel somewhat tempted myself but for now I'm saving my...

Hi all - this is a question about a delivery of lumber I took the other day. Actually, this is my first big order of lumber ever, a total of 300 BF. (I suppose there is a stealth gloat here as well - at least for a new guy.) Since I'm new to buying lumber from somewhere other than a retail...
