Moving to Europe
I'm moving to Europe (hopefully) this year and I need to get rid of my power tools. Nothing will work on 220V/50hz power.
I have a 90's Delta contractor saw. Its very big (50" rip) and very heavy. How much do these things go for used? It has Biesemeyer fence and a bunch of my very very special :-) customizations, like dust collection. Its in pretty good shape. I would definitely not say pristine. Its used and gently abused. Very serviceable.
My understanding is that if I can pay someone to take it, I should be happy. :-( But I don't know for sure.
What's it worth?

50-60% of the cost for a new or comparable saw & accessories.
How do you like it so far, Brian?

Brian, I spent a few weeks there working on a project back in the mid 90's. I enjoyed the culture and the people. I was in Vac, which is about 30 km north of Budapest on the Danube River. It was my first real life experience with the metric system. After a few days it made me wish that we would have switched back in the 70's when we had to learn it in school. I hope you are enjoying Hungary.
