Re: Today in the shop (my drill press setup)

The drill press handle as shown here is going to look a little different then the factory one. Yes the red handle is the give away. I did that because I kept trying to unscrew the other ones then the one that lets you take it off. Extreme perhaps but I haven't made that mistake since the switch. I ...

Re: A Slow Boat To Nowhere

John, can you by 35mm film, check the price, I got the same set up as you but a Nikon F. And no I refuse to buy a cell phone that takes pics, it is a phone, not a camera, but the youngens I think buy a phone to use more as a camera then a phone. Just watch the commercial for them. Sure you can buy ...

Re: Adjustable stop collar

They warn you in the instructions not to use them to actually raise the table. You are supposed to raise the table by hand, turn the collar to make the adjustment and then lower the table and collar back down. Other than that is it possible to over tighten them ? Not sure. I have not experienced an...

Re: Adjustable stop collar

I would make sure it is NOT a cup or point setscrew. They come with a dog nose set screw so the end is flat. I have one installed on the main table and one each on my two fixed extension tables. There is no sign of any deformation on the main table tubes and one of the extension tables. Interesting...

Re: Beginner - Hobby

I wouldn't know where to start on fixing the greenie. All is here videos, pics JPG, they are simple, check out the Maintenance site Fixing a Greenie is not much more complicated the a 10ER. The drive is the same a s the 10ER speed changer. The speed control dial is the only real difference and it i...

Re: Beginner - Hobby

Jsburger, I didn't mean to go against anything you said. Just my brief observations from the call. You're probably right. If I happen to get this unit would these parts be what I need to get it functional for all five jobs? http://www.shopsmith.com/ownersite/catalog/l_turningpackage.htm. - 201.23 h...

Re: Free Standing SS Drill press

rjent, I cant speak for all, but as a multiple machine owner and some dedicated for a special perpous. They run forever, easy to work on and used cheap, plus variable speed without having to change a pulley belt, unless an ER without a speed changer. I missed out on a mint ER for 50$ today because ...

Re: A Slow Boat To Nowhere

Oh John, 35mm film, slides, Koda Chrome, ASA speeds, come on your breaking my heart. :confused: I have a Cannon AE-1 and an A-1. As I am sure you know the A-1 was the best camera body Cannon made back then. Maybe not a Nikon but close. I think it was around $600 in 1985 for just the body. I have an...

Re: Beginner - Hobby

Just called. I asked if it included the above items. Here is the reply: "No this is a stock mark v it has the rip fence, over sized table, saw blade arbor, and jointer. There is no floating table legs, lathe parts, drill chuck or sanding disk." By 'stock' he is admitting it is a Mark V 50...
