Adapting a non-shopsmith jointer to shopsmith
Posted: Mon Feb 08, 2021 10:33 am
Hello,
A few years ago I was unable to find an affordable Shopsmith jointer, but a little 4" craftsman popped up, so I rebuilt it, and adapted it to my Shopsmith. Thought y'all might find my mounting system helpful if you ever find yourself in the same situation, or have some other similar device. It worked great for years. I recently got a Shopsmith jointer, so will now part with this one, but thought the photos would be useful to others.
