Holy cow, thanks Mike. That is exactly what I needed. I really appreciate it. I will try to put it together in the next day or so and I will let you know how it goes.

Thanks again,

Andy

Ugh! Oh well, I will get those tomorrow. It is about 15 degrees in my shop right now and I have to ...

I'm sorry guys, you are being helpful, but incorrectly assumed it was simpler than it is. I owe you some pics. I'll take pictures of the components I have later this evening.

I appreciate your willingness to help.

Thanks,

Bandsaw mounts too low?

I did a search and could not find the answer, but I sense this is an embarrassingly trivial question that muct have been asked a billion times before.

I bought my Shopsmith in parts. The bandsaw came from one guy with who knows what configuration he had used it in. The rest of the unit came from ...

If the wedges do move, does this prevent the headstock from being put back on completely, or is it possible to put the headstock back on with the wedges in the wrong position and not know it? I'm asking because I just put my headstock back on and I was not really paying attention to this. I just ...
