Shopsmith Forums

Nick,

I enjoyed the graphic you posted. Reible, if you would want to join me, I am right on the way. If you get as far as my place, since I'm only 5 mi.off of U.S. 30 and right on the way to Dayton. Any other takers?

Never let it be said that I backed away from a challenge. But other than myself, I do not know any other Shopsmith owners who live in my area. I suppose we're all making sawdust. I did put out a request a few days ago to see if there was anyone on the forum that would be interested. There were a few...

I like this idea!

I really have enjoyed reading and participating in this discussion. I do not believe there are any people more devoted to their machines than Shopsmith owners! I love the product and the concept of having a machine that truly "does it all". I have owned other table saws over the years and ...

Good morning- Last night I was ripping some old lumber for pen-making from an old gym floor. I had pulled, I thought all of the old nails out of the wood. I had recently purchased the above item and, as a precaution was running it over the different pieces before running it through the table saw to ...
