Contributing Member rdb Posted March 6, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted March 6, 2009 I search Craigslist, locally, all the time looking for the right bargains, but I'm not a shopaholic. About every 6 months, I see a sewing machine or a tool I might want to try for...it just doesn't happen very often. But then I found a small program called CraigsPalFree, and everyday, I'm chomping at the bit. With this program it's easy to search all over from one place, and see what's for sale all over. The sewing machines I see, can be incredible. I'm almost tempted to make the various trips just to see the offering up close and personal. So far I have resisted the travel, but I know it's going to happen...lol. So, anyways, check this program out, and see if it helps out. I use searches like leatherwork, leathercraft, Landis, walking foot, and sewing machines. I find it fascinating, if not outright evilly tempting..... http://www.craigspal.com/index.php Quote Web page Facebook
Contributing Member rdb Posted March 6, 2009 Author Contributing Member Report Posted March 6, 2009 Yeh, I heard that too, but I never look at those sections, and I am definitely not a morals cop...lol. All I care about is a good deal for my business...lol. some new searches I just tried: cobbler shop shoe shop saddle shop saddle repair man did some cool stuff come up... Quote Web page Facebook

Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted March 7, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted March 7, 2009 Does Craigslist accept family members?.......

Contributing Member Jordan Posted March 7, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted March 7, 2009 I think they have restrictions on selling animals and family members! Quote
Members Kevin Posted March 8, 2009 Members Report Posted March 8, 2009 RDB, you are a sick, sick, sick person. You know many people on this forum have GAS (gear acquisition syndrome). Within 15 minutes I found a dog collar and harness company for sale in Brooklyn. It even includes a Randall Cyclone which some don't believe to exist. I already have a Landis 3, a kickpress, draw down stand and table saw on my front porch. So far I have been able to pass it off as found art to the city. Oh wll, I guess they wouldn't let me bring much of it home on the bus. Maybe I can find my own short bus. Kevin Quote
Contributing Member rdb Posted March 8, 2009 Author Contributing Member Report Posted March 8, 2009 Sorry dude! Maybe you can take the train..... I didn't see that company on my searches, but I'm glad I didn't...lol. I did see half a dozen shoe shops, and a belt company...all cheap money for the equipment, but none of which I could use right now...but oh so very tempting....

Members rawhide1 Posted March 18, 2009 Members Report Posted March 18, 2009 Howdy I went to run this program and a screen came up and said publisher could not be verified. And that I should only run stuff from verified sources. So since my computer skills are dang few and my wife aint around to ask. Will this program be okay to run or do I need to do something else to run it. I was trying to use the free version. Thanks for any help. Mike Quote
Contributing Member rdb Posted March 18, 2009 Author Contributing Member Report Posted March 18, 2009 That just means Microsoft doesn't recognize the publisher's certificate. It doesn't necessarily mean bad. If you know the source, it's just up to you to say the final okay. In this case, if you downloaded the program from the link I gave, you will be fine...
