Re: Bandsaw basket case?
RF guy, prior to posting about this problem, I unfortunately believed that I have a defective lower wheel assembly and ordered a new used one. Also ordered a less expensive orange tire set from a third-party seller on Amazon. When they arrive, I will see if I can return those and exchange for a set...

Re: Band Saw Adapter to 4" Vac
Looks good! Have you done something similar to make the lower saw guard 4" ? I am contemplating getting a 3D printed lower saw guard from Doug for my Mark V. Just curious if you have done a 4" conversion on your lower saw guard and what you did. Thanks. https://forum.shopsmith.com/viewtopi...

Re: Bandsaw basket case?
Honestly kinda shocked by your response, but hey its your equipment. When these orange urethane bandsaw tires comes off, it is often destructive. That is what happened to me and what it sounds like happened to you. Also its been discussed a good bit in the past on this forum with consensus among for...

Re: Bandsaw basket case?
I would NOT use the SS urethane bandsaw tires. Myself and several others on this forum have reported issues with them whereas the bluemax urethane tires off of eBay work great. Below is what I wrote on this forum before about them and some links with more info on the issue. Honestly SS should stop s...

Re: Shopsmith Headstock Trade-in Program
He's legit -- he's local to me and I've done business with him. Nice guy. I got my 1-1/8 hp motor for my greenie from him and he did me right. I think he's been the only factory-authorized Shopsmith repair agent for a very long time. I don't know anything about his trade-in program and I haven't he...

Shopsmith Headstock Trade-in Program
Is this really legit, or is he working independent of the mothership...just curious. Surprised to find out there is a 3rd party that is now authorized by Shopsmith as a repair center.

Re: Dado blade
Karl, Thanks. So you were trying to describe the recess you wanted to cut in the Mahjong holders? I can see everything from your description now, EXCEPT the "3". The grove looks like about 1.5" across and 1/4" deep but those holders are much longer than 3". Just curious, but...

Re: Moxon Vise (My Attempt) COMPLETED
End result looks great. How strong and stable are those Amazon brackets? I like the idea of having it separable. A big beefy vise using hardwoods will be a little heavy, but nothing like lifting the jointer/planer off & on the Mark V. Just wondering if while clamping something using the expanded...
