So, another topic about the availability of Biax parts got me thinking, is there any interest in a rental service for Biax power scrapers?
I'm in research mode at the moment, but hypothetically I'm thinking of a website based service where you could rent by the week or possibly lease by the year. There would be a deposit to be returned once the tool was returned in working order. The price of rental would also include shipping to the lower 48 states and a return label would be included with the tool. The deal would not include instructions of how to rebuild machines, but instruction of how to use the tool and include a basic blade.
The pricing I'm still figuring out, but It would of course be cheaper than buying a new Biax and less of a gamble as buying an old used model. This is less a service for the professional rebuilder who scrapes every day and more for guys like myself who need to scrape their own machines and tools on demand. If you needed to rebuild your mill over the course of a month, You could have access to a newer model Biax for $800 +deposit (hypothetically).
Would any of you be interested in such a service?
