Re: I got a new to me mark
The Owner's Manual cover for your Mark 5 should look very similar to the 1973 cover shown below. _ 1973 Mark V manual cover.jpg . The Self Study Guide has 10 chapters. Another common book found with the Shopsmith Tools is titled " Power Tool Woodworking for Everyone " by R. J. DeCristoforo...

Re: Double tilt upgrade
Hami5297, As you can see JPG was referring to changing just the Bench Tubes from the original 1-7/8" diameter to the 1-3/4" diameter tubes but still using the original Bench Ends (Base/Arm and Headrest ends). Since you are changing to the Double Tilt Bench Ends, which cannot use the old 1-...

Re: I got a new to me mark
youngstev, Welcome to the Shopsmith Forum. Thank you for adding the pictures. They are a great help in describing things. Shopsmith Mark 5 serial number SS 9405 would have likely been made in 1975. There are no records from that time period, so it is an estimate I have made. Hopefully included in th...

Re: Quill coupler broken - where to source new part?
David you are correct. The one in yesterday's post is, I believe an older version. The one on a Drive Sleeve Assembly below is like the one you show. _ Drive Sleeve Assembly - Poly V with Drive and Ring.jpg . I believe I have a spare like the one shown above I bought from Shopsmith not too long ago....

Re: Quill coupler broken - where to source new part?
The Drive & Ring Assembly attaches to the end of the Drive Sleeve Assembly and is the plastic drive part with a metal ring inside. That metal ring holds the drive on the splined end of the Drive Sleeve Assembly by "snapping" into the indents in the splines. You can see those indents on...

Re: New Shopsmith Owner
When I said, Parts for these old Model A-34 Jig Saws do come up for sale occasionally. I didn't want to give you false hope as those parts could come up for sale next week or next year or later. It is hard to tell when it may show up. As for making a replacement, the Hold Down Lock Cylinder P/N 134-...

Re: New Shopsmith Owner
Briansmith91, Those parts, 134-34 and 134-23, are very specific to the very old Jig Saw made for the Model 10E and 10ER. The Washer P/N 134-34W is pretty common hardware. Unless you or someone can make them for you, you would have to find them on the used market. Parts for these old Model A-34 Jig S...

Re: Universal Lathe Tool Rest min spindle length
I got out to the shop yesterday afternoon and did some measuring. It was without the actual Universal Lathe Tool Rest since I have not found it yet since moving. Still too many unorganized boxes of "stuff" around the shop. Using the different Tailstock Centers I have about 2" to 4&quo...

Re: Universal Lathe Tool Rest min spindle length
I would have to measure that too. Since the 10" diameter center disk of the Universal Lathe Tool Rest is wider than the carriage at least some of the upper mounting bracket of the Lift Assist would be under the 10" center Disk.
FYI the column turning video is impressive.
