Re: Introduction
Thanks everyone, looking forward to using the new machine. Question for anyone that may know, when they deliver, it's up to me to muscle it off the back of the truck? Or will it have a lift gate?

Re: Introduction
Not relevant! They will just boot it off the truck onto your driveway.

Re: Introduction
Let me offer my welcome to the group.
It nice to have another new to shopsmith member here and feel free to ask any and all questions cause someone here is sure to be able to help you. Well at least on shopsmith related things.
The good news is that when you get a new machine it is already aligned so it will be ready to go very quickly after you have it put together. You can easily be making sawdust the very first day if you wish to.
Looking forward to seeing more posts and maybe a project or two from you in the future.

The driver will probably unload it to the curb. Then it's YOUR problem to handle.krusty wrote:Question for anyone that may know, when they deliver, it's up to me to muscle it off the back of the truck? Or will it have a lift gate?

I remember the day I got my Mark 7 last June. It is very heavy, so get some help. You are in for a real treat! I'm still learning, but I have more fun each day.

Welcome home Russ.krusty wrote:Hello everyone. I’m new to the forum and to Shopsmith. I have my new Mark 7 on order and it will be here in four to six weeks. I have individual machines currently but am looking to gain more space in my garage. Plus I like the accuracy I’m seeing compared to my cheap machines. Can’t wait to get started and learning from everyone on this forum.

Re: Introduction
Is that true? When I bought an old, new-in-box 510, I had to put it all together and align it. My machine was from the mid-90s.reible wrote:The good news is that when you get a new machine it is already aligned so it will be ready to go very quickly after you have it put together.

Re: Introduction
Thanks for pointing that out. Either they changed something, or my memory is less than perfect. I wouldn't bet against either.reible wrote:...
