**Let me know if this is not allowed or needs to be moved:) thanks. I'm pretty sure I'm going to sell my 8" drop saw with MK 303 blade (looks like a chop saw). I have no idea how to price it. Does anyone have suggestions or guidance in evaluating the situation? Thanks!

Try an ebay search and see if you can price it off there. I imagine it is worth about 500 USD.

Lots of factors. How old, how much did you invest, blades (types and number of), motor, pumps, water trays, table, anything broken or missing, anything you added to it? all of this and more goes into the equation. For example: I have an original workforce 7 in tile saw. Paid $77 for it. Added some splash guards, have 3 new blades and 2 used blades for it. Have made hundreds of not thousands of cuts (wore out 5 blades so far). No way I could ask any more than half price for it, but to me it is worth a couple hundred so there is no way I could sell it lol. You have enough players so you could take some pix and list it on the buy sell section with some pix and a starting price or BO type deal.

I was hoping for a price per inch by type of saw type of feedback, but nothing is cut and dried! So I decided to use the new photo plug in and post pics to get folks' input on this 1960s era saw out of CA. by a long gone company. Also if anyone has heard of this company (a people helping hire older people) I'm all ears. It now has a new Dayton motor and new blade.   |

Last item on Kreigh’s page— Whatever happened to…—includes H.O.P.E. on their list but that’s about it.
H.O.P.E (Hiring Older People Enterprises)
of Riverside, California, made an outstanding chop style, preformer, trim saw in the mid to late 1970s that could also be used for carving.

Yes! You found the page I'd read a couple years ago. Thanks for the link. To answer your other question I have it using oil. Thanks for your input. |
