Since I have a 2nd Mk VII now, maybe I can put the sharpening stone on the front shaft of the 2nd unit, and keep the 1st unit a dedicated lathe.

Shopsmith lathe face plates - or another maker?
So I just purchased my 2nd Mk VII for $50, and it came with these face plates - 6" and 3.5"
Only marking is on the small one, 3053-2X (the X goes across one of the holes, so is unreadable)

Ideas?
Anyone have a illustrated parts breakdown for the Mk VII, so I don't have to ask for help each time ?

Recommended lathe chuck for Mk VII ?
So if I'm spending upwards of $30 on the name-brand lathe faceplate, would that money be better spent towards an adjustable chuck/jaw combo? Especially with the added benefit of not having to use screws to attach every time?
Anyone have a recommendation on what's worked best for you?
