Last month I found an awesome deal on a used 20" Delta RC51 Planer on LetGo ( similar to craigslist). Louis and I took a little road trip to New Jersey, and pickup up this monster of a machine, loading and unloading it with nothing more than straps and pulleys.

A lot of people request some more footage of my day to day life in the shop, and pickup up used machinery is something I do almost weekly. I really enjoy finding deals on machinery, meeting new people, and figuring out how to move the stuff without any heavy equipment like forklifts or cranes.

This planer is a Delta RC51, 4 blade 20" planer, build in 1984.
