Re: Utah Winter Sunsets

Hi John. Anything for sale near you? Great pic. Thanks for sharing. Just a bunch of MK V's. There is a Pro Planer for $250. It has the dust chute and castors. Really dusty but looks in pretty nice shape. Ha!! I was thinking real estate for sale but your response is in line - and on point - with thi...

Re: Old Parts Identification

Can any one help, please.

I have just acquired a Crafters Station that came to me with "no belts" but I do have the manual. But the manual is of no help for this problem. It does give a part number (515633) but with no part description.
Has anyone found a source for these belts?

Ditto for the SPTs - lots of used ones go...

I just received an aluminum miter gauge extension via UPS from ebay. As I am new to woodworking, just collecting my Shopsmith stuff, this is going to be duh question but i have to ask in case the darn thing is supposed to have a slight curve or bow to it. I would think it should be straight as an ar...
