    Default Reconditioned machines from Craftsman

    I noticed that Craftsman is offering reconditioned systems for $999.

    That is a pretty good deal.... That cuts the price of the used machines to below $999.00 without a warranty..... This would be a better deal. A used machine gets no warranty from LHR.

    I would buy one..... When I am ready for #4 it will be off to Sears....

    I don't think this is eligible for the free shipping because this is definitely not mailable. You get a 6 month warranty with these. Sorta shoots down my deal, but hey, I'd definitely buy one if I wanted another one.

    When added to the cart it shows free standard shipping.

    Hello All,

    Been lurking around here reading up for a couple of weeks. I ordered the recondition CompuCarve from Sears on Dec. 2 and it arrived on Dec. 9. The price was $1,199 and after the discounts were applied along with free shipping, it cost a total of $1,066.

    Played with a couple of test patterns. But I looking forward to this weekend to when I can dedicate a full day to learning the machine. Any advice is much appreciated.

    Glad to be part of this community.

    Happy Holidays to all!!

    That is a great deal on the reconditioned machine. That would make a good secondary machine since i know my way around the first one after a year of experience. I wonder if they have them in the store and will let you look them over before buying. If it says free shippping it should be free shipping. I was unloading a package from Ups the other day and noticed a Carvewright box on the truck. Probably the woodworker neighbor down the street that was admiring mine a while back..haha..

    Welcome Vbrabble. Read everything you can find here on lubing the machine. Lube the flex shaft with Cranes Cam Lube with Moly, Clean and lube after evey use - not the flex shaft though. Oh and come here with any questions or issues.
