I bought an old industrial blind-stitch machine on ebay there in 
Doylestown.  Indicated pickup only, but seller in the text indicated if 
I only wanted the head he would ship it.  No one bid against me and the 
seller I think is less than happy with the selling price, so is not 
offering to ship it now.   Wouldn't have been an issue as I was 
expecting to be in Akron working with a client there in the next couple 
of weeks, but it looks like I am going back to Australia again for a 
client there instead.   The next step was going be to hire someone off 
of craigslist services to pick it up, pack it for me and drop it off at 
UPS, but thought I would check here first. *****Blacksmithing 
connection****** The unit comes on a heavy table with steel legs that 
make a good workbench.  It also has a 1/2-3/4 hp clutch motor on it that 
could be used for all sorts of metal forming tools.   Years ago I made a 
small planishing hammer for a jewelry smith using one.   I only want the 
head off of it, as the rest is too expensive to ship, so the clutch 
motor and bench goes to the person that packs and drops it off at 
UPS.    Don't know if this is reasonable or not or any one wants to fool 
with  it.  Let me know, otherwise I hit the local craigslist services 
section.
