My adventure Today !!

[Blister]

Saw a add for a wood turning item I wanted , so phoned and went to have a look :shock: , when I got there the lady told me she wanted to sell everything in the workshop , not just the item I went to look at as she needed to move on her late husbands equipment ,

She told me someone had already viewed the equipment and only wanted to buy the newest / best items and not take everything , The lady had no internet access and did not want to have the trouble of selling each item on it own , so I asked how much are you asking for everything , expecting it to be a high sum , When I was told the selling price I told the lady it was worth a lot more than the asking price but she insisted thats the price if you take it all
So I could not refuse , Its a shame as there are no boys in her family and no relatives are in to turning and the husband was not a member of a Club as I suggested trying to sell some that way , So off I went today in the snow to collect it all , 12 hours later here are some photos

I also was asked to take the draw units as well

It was quite a sad day as I could see the lady was letting go of a part of here husband , but she said He would not have wanted it to sit there going to waste

Nice kit. I only have one thing to say.

Thank you for being honest with her and not letting the "honest" lads down.Many would, even if it is not your way, of tried to rip her off.

Refreshing to see.
