Re: US Government is About to Change Table Saws FOREVER!
I also found the actual wording of the announcement concerning the patent vague enough to be qualified later. However, taking it at face value, with the patent now expired, and no extension issued, it seems to be intended for use in the public domain without compensation. I am prepared to be found w...

Mark VII - dual quill bearing year? All models 1.125HP?
Of my three units, all of them have a 1.125 or 1-1/8HP motor. Were there higher power motors installed in the Mark VII from SS?
Does anyone know the cutoff SN or the year of one vs two quill bearing? I thought they were all two quill bearing, maybe wrong.

Re: Mark VII “Project Machine”
docmirror what pics are you looking at? I do have the tie bars on the ends of the feet, the wheel table raising device, and the cam lock table lock. I understood those were later additions. Yeah, I got it backwards, and your's does look like a later. I had to go back and ref one of the pics of my S...

Re: Mark VII “Project Machine”
Day-um! Deal of the century! FYI, you have a Mk VII 'series 3'. There was no official series for the Mk VII but there were running changes along the production. The open ends of the base footing and the non-hinged lower cabinet door indicate a fairly late S/N model. I think the power switch was beef...

Re: looking for help pricing a Mark VII to sell
Those gear teeth are avail on ebay. Look for 'shopsmith' parts and you'll find it if you want to replace the section. The gear rack on the ways is another of the poor quality setup done on the Mk VII, like the vac system.

Re: Mk VII series 1 for sale to good home.
Wish you weren't all the way in the north woods, I'd gladly let you have it at half price. You could make a special trip down here, and stay on the boat in the harbor for a few days, go fishing, then take the machine back with you. Why would I be going back? Harbor charges extra for liveaboard. Plu...

Re: Mk VII series 1 for sale to good home.
Wey-ull, I wasn't really interested, but I figgered if I had three, and then I had four, I would - as they say 'corner the market' in Mk VII's. My theory of never having enough Mk VII's has come up against the reality of limited floor space, and a new little baby airplane arriving in a few weeks. Wi...
