What is the correct rpm to run the compressor? thanks, Brian

I have a chance to pick up a model 4e jointer(serial #8280) in very good shape. The seller said it was from a 10ER SS, and it wouldn't work with the MarkV(he recently sold his 10ER and MarkV, for some reason this is all he has left). Is he right, this jointer is for a 10e and won't work on my MarkV?...

My reason was to make it a little easier to clean and paint. You answered my question--won't attempt it now.

thanks,

Brian

How do you remove the legs/tubes from the table saw table, extension table, etc.? Also, on the legs with the raising/lowering gears cut in them, do you mark the leg before removing in order to replace it in the exact same place, so the gears will work correctly? If so, what are some methods of marki...

Nothing new, just a quick pictorial on a tube spooge tank for those who haven't tried it. These are the first tubes I’ve done. These bench tubes are from a 1956 Shopsmith Mark V found on CL for $75, nice because it has the 4” jointer included, going to clean it up and give it to my 23yr old son, Wy...

Thank you both for the response and info. I'll send off my dial today.

Took off the Mark V speed dial during dis-assembly and look what I found. Well, there's at least a few teeth intact!(I guess this is why you shouldn't turn the dial without the motor running) The teeth on the main body all look OK, thats a good thing. Anyone have an kextra speed dial handle they'd l...
