'All delete buttons' means every 'delete' button you find. No there is not an every button either!]11018[/ATTACH]

This will be at the top of the screen after clicking on 'edit' then 'go advanced'.

that's a pretty picture you get of delete... but when I EDIT THEN GO ADVANCED I only get an edit at the top... I guess I won't do anymore posting... I can bring up 40 servers at a time for my work and trouble shoot a T3 line... but i'll be danged if I can get this to give me a delete button... everytime I go advanced all I get is edit... I've done it 10 or more times... :(

okay guys, bigeddy needs help here and I can't seem to deliver - maybe you can. He believes he watched Nick do some small item turning using the PowerStation. He wants to do the same but I can't locate the Session. Someone saw it, besides bigeddy .... HELP. Please provide a link.

I'm thinking it might have been some of those uTube session that Nick was doing rather than a Sawdust Session.

Anyone got ideas on how to equipment a power station to hold items for turning. Better yet, anyone got some pictures.

Aaah, I found it. The solution is a fixture: http://www.shopsmithacademy.com/SS_Archives/SS108/SS108_Turning_Pens_files/images/Power%20Stand%20Lathe.pdf . This fixture provides a place to mount the Tool Rest. On the Mark V this function is served by the Carriage.


Some of the items that would be needed but are NOT included with a Power Station are detailed on page B-13 in this manual.

The items are a drive center, the tailstock and the tool rest. (top right hand side). They can all be purchased direct from Shopsmith and are often available on ebay.

How about this one?

BTW, I've not had the guts to (re) try using a finger plane at the lathe. When I first tried it a couple years ago, it wasn't successful. Since then I've 'tuned up' my finger plane and suspect it would do better now(?).
