1954 Mark 5 with Jigsaw (motor issues?) - $55 - Central NY

Odd description from the seller (they’re selling for parts), but I’d bet the motor issue is an easy fix…

WOW!

Total Shop w/ SPTs in NH

Not sure whether any of this is compatible with a Shopsmith, but it comes with bandsaw, jointer, belt sander. Asking is $200, but I’m guessing a successful “best offer” could be a lot less…

What is written on the bandsaw?

Klaw19,

The ad is for Total Shop tools not Shopsmith but rather a Shopsmith clone. It's why thing look different. There were a number of Shopsmith clones made in the past. Besides Total Shop you may find Wood Master, NIC Homeshop, Master Woodcraft, Master Shop and others. Parts are very similar but not always the same or interchangeable.

Some folks local to us are planning an estate sale and have a mid 80's Mark 5 they want to get rid of, asked me if I'd help. Looks like they have a pretty good selection of attachments, jig saw, planer, band saw, jointer, sanding disks, sharpening disks, nova chuck quite a selection. There's no market for the stuff in this region I told them I'd post here to see if actual enthusiasts would be interested. They're not interested in parting out, looking to sell whole package. Send PM and we can see where this goes.

Picked this one up yesterday - thanks for the tip! It's a Yuba Greenie (first of those I’ve ever personally seen), with jointer (also Yuba Greenie) and bandsaw (Magna American Goldie). Hope to have the M5 and jointer fixed up and back in service soon…

It’s all torn down right now, but I’ll post some pics when I finish cleanup and reassembly. Not going for showroom new on this one - original paint is passable, and I want to get it in the hands of a new user as quickly as possible.

Rare Shopsmith clone in Central NY

Here’s one you don’t see very often - a cheap knockoff of the Model 10ER called the Supershop:

https://ithaca.craigslist.org/tls/d/mecklenburg-vintage-tools/7878551926.html

This particular listing in fact has it misidentified as a “1947 Shopsmith”! Well Supershop’s marketing people tried to confuse the public back in the day, so I guess it’s still working!
