For Sale – Inventables X-Carve 1000 with Work Bench - $1500
I am selling my X-Carve 1000 w/ Dewalt Router with custom work bench and dust collection system. This unit works great, I just don’t have time to use it. I estimate I have 15 hours operating on it total, and used a buffer waste board so the Inventables waste board has no wear other than a handful of screw holes. Includes custom worktable with lockable rolling casters, peg board storage, and side mounted power strip. Also included is the dust collection system including: fan/receiver, after-market 1 micron filter, dust collection hose (installed on worktable with gates, includes vacuuming wand) and spindle boot. If you have read anything about these machines, you know that a dust collection system is a MUST HAVE. The dust collection system I designed works very well, and this was quite an undertaking from research, to design, to construction. This would be a HUGE cost and time savings for anyone looking to get into this. Also consider the custom work bench is completely mobile so can be used in whatever space you have. Here is a high level breakdown of my equipment and costs overall, with detailed descriptions further down:
X-Carve: $1629.55
Dust Collector: $214.05
After Market Bag Filter: $27.99
Dust Collection Components: $121.42
Workbench Lumber and Hardware: ~$175
Extra Bits: ~$45
Total: ~$2225
I have priced this to sell, as I have no interest in spending several afternoons showing this and trying to get maximum money. I just want to get some of my money back and clear up space in my garage. I enjoyed using this machine, but I just haven’t used it enough to justify keeping it. This is a great deal for someone trying to get into this, especially if you are more interested in using the machine than getting it set up. It would take you 4-5 weekends of work to get a new machine to this point, consider that assembly of the machine alone is a whole weekend of non-stop work.
