Default I need help from anyone with woodworking knowledge please.

I recently lost a friend that had a nice wood working shop. It is completely stocked with equipment and wood. Lots of tools etc. I would like to help his wife dispose of everything but I don't know values or where to begin. I am hoping another Villager could look things over and head me in the right direction.

You might want to go over to one of the Villages Wood Shops and talk to someone there.

I recommend contacting the Villages Woodshop -- they are great members and are likely the best resource at this point. Valerie (can't remember her last name) is the president of the club.

Another resource would be to look on Ebay and see what others are selling the equipment for and use this as a guide.

Easy on tools, look up brand name model and retail price. Then price it by being used and condition. Wood differ pine get what can, oak, walnut, and expensive exotic woods lot more.
