This plane is in mint condition, and comes with all the original wrapping, papers, bag, etc. It has a manufacture date of September 2007, and therefore does not have side spurs. In one sense, it is better than new in that the iron has been thoroughly prepped, with a polished back [ruler trick used] and a micro bevel which is very difficult to see in the images, but it is freshly honed to 12000. The images make the sole look worse than it is - it is smooth and perfectly functional. This plane is really pristine. I am selling it because I simply don't use it, and haven't used it hardly at all over the years, so I'd like to see it go to a good home. Actual shipping costs are to be paid by buyer. I accept paypal [if you add an extra $5 for fees], or a personal check. I will ship after the check clears.
Does anyone have any experience and/or recommendations on pump and filtering systems for rainwater collection to make it potable?
I am constructing a remote building which will have a toilet, vanity, kitchen sink and a hosebib and plan to do rainwater collection from the metal roof. I already have the tank and gutter in place, with plans for the leaf filter and those items. I've researched pumps, UV filters and reverse osmosis ones also but am looking for real world recommendations from experience on products and best practices.
Since the building will not be heated in winter months (upstate NY), I will plan to have threaded unions so sensitive items may be removed and stored, then charge the system with RV antifreeze for the winter.
Any experienced information would be greatly appreciated.
For the record, I have no more lathes. Gave my ONEWAY 24-36 to a nephew and his daughter, gave my Jet Mini to my son-in-law, another lathe to another son-in-law...
basically gave all my tools away, mostly to family members. Gave a table saw and a radial arm saw to a church member. So I am virtually tool-less.
Oh, I kept a screw driver and a cordless drill. But that's about it.
Now living with a daughter and her husband 30 miles south of where I was before in the Cultural Center of the Great Southwest, if not the Universe.

The only tool I have is a lathe. Everything else is an accessory.
So the compressor motor on my AC unit is going bad/bearings are going out. Had the tech come out to verify I was correct, and he agreed, along with mentioning the start capacitor (IIRC) is also staring to go, and there is a coolant leak and the levels are low (I have someone come out and check the system 2x/year, and the low coolant level was mentioned in the fall). System is a Lennox (XC16-048-230, which is a 4 ton 16 SEER 2 stage), and about 11 years old. I'm in a gated community where the builder used basically the same systems for all of the houses, and I think 3-4 other people have had to replace theirs in the last year.
Considering age of system, and the fact that I'm going straight into the worst/most stressful part of the year in Houston, I'm really tempted to not sink money into a repair and just replace the whole thing, as my understanding is these systems typically only last 10-12 years generally, or maybe a bit longer. And as the system is still functional this gives me a bit of breathing room to get quotes, etc.
Any suggestions on what I should generally look out for, or avoid? This is the first time I've had to replace a system and I've heard stories that run the gamut. And even looking at brands some people say some are great, and others say they suck.
If it helps the house is ~2500 square feet and three stories, with three zones (one for each floor). And the outside unit is close to a bedroom, so a quieter system would be nice (but it doesn't need to be the quietest model out there). And the furnace is in the attic. (My understanding is that it is generally best to just replace both at the same time, but I don't really know).

I have a total of 8 old school steel bar clamps for sale, 7 are eight feet long, one is 6 feet in length. These are steel frame and quite heavy. The threads on the clamping end are good. The bars could use a good wire brush cleaning to help make the sliding end piece slide more easily. Some of them are missing the little clip to hold the clamp end pad to the screw, as shown in the second picture. I'd figured this would be easy enough to address, but it never bothered me enough to get around to doing that. Because of the length and the weight of the clamps shipping would be prohibitively expensive, so these are for local pickup only. Scandia is about 15 miles north of the St. Paul, MN area, 9 miles east of Forest Lake.
