Re: Shopsmith Shelix Conversion?

Re: SPEED INCREASER
I changed over to the PowerPro years ago. I have a Speed Increaser sitting in the box that I recall using twice. It worked well when I used it. If you would like to send me a PM, I will dust off the box and inventory that all the parts are there . I would enjoy someone using this tool instead of col...

Re: Planer Cutterhead Specs
I contacted Shelixheads requesting the three available spec sheets. I received them within minutes of clicking the send button! Outstanding customer service. Upon reviewing them I realized I am a woodworker and not a machinist, and not capable of making the exact measurements needed. I will be sendi...

Planer Cutterhead Specs
Hoping there is someone out there who might know if the specs on the SS Thickness Planer have remained the same during their 30 yr plus history. This would be helpful when contemplating a SHELIX conversion. As usual emailing Shopsmith produces no response!

Re: Joint-Matic
I also have a Joint-Matic that was barely if ever used. I have all the original accessories available for it, some in their original boxes, plus a few extra parts. If anyone is interested in one, at the noted Lumberjocks price, please contact me.
