I have a vintage miner edger that I would like to sell. Any suggestions what I should ask for it? All the gears turn smoothly.

Likely its production days are well behind it.  So it's nostalgia value.  Is sawmilling of historic significance where you are?  Folks like yard art?

Surprisingly it has current flange block bearings. To bad it was left outside. The mandrel and shift collar need grease and oil instead of rust. A machine shop could make those parts. Next would be the feed rolls and unless they are in real good shape it will only cut banana boards. Meadows Mills owns Miner today.

Welcome ,   would be good if you filled out location in your profile so we could know how close or far away you are.   There some of us who like that kind of old stuff and are not commercial production mills.

Thank you for the good suggestion. Took me a bit, but I got it added.

Thank you for putting in your area, that sure helps with deciding to follow up further, just a little far for me.

Did you ever sell that edger, if not I would be interested

Hello,
Do you still have the edger? We are restoring an 1879 Chase Turbine Sawmill and would be interested in getting an edger. Any idea how old your edger is? Thanks.
