Re: Upgrade to Power Pro
Because SS doesn't ship to Canada where Paul in NOW. Does lowes Vet policy extend to ALL their stores, no matter where they are? I have no idea but the Lowes web site says nothing about the location of the store. If you are a Vet you are a Vet no matter where you live if there is a Lowes store wher...

I bought it recently when SS had it on sale.BuckeyeDennis wrote:Looking good! I can see from your photos that I do indeed need the pin jaws that Shopsmith bundles with the Nova G3 chuck. I was wondering about that, and had been considering buying the chuck (only) from a different vendor.

Re: Restoring 10ER S/N 83974
I finished disassembling the headstock today and it is ready for glass blasting. Next I cleaned and polished the quill housing. It was not rusted just dirty. I used mineral spirits to clean off all the oil and grease and then 600 grit wet/dry paper and #0000 steel wool. The ID plate was cleaned with...

Looking good brother. The green and silver will go over the gray primer very well ..... :D JK, looking forward to how she turns out .... :cool: OK, the green and silver really looks nice but I am a die hard traditionalist. Maybe one of the other three will get a different treatment but don't hold y...

Re: Converting a Pro Planer to a Mark-Mount Planer
My Mark-Mount Planer is a manual feed model bought many years ago when budgets were very tight. But at my age now the elbows begin to groan when I have a lot of planing to do :( I need to get a feed motor fix, but that would run around $1,000 from Shopsmith :eek: I can locally get a Pro Planer for ...

Re: Upgrade to Power Pro
When I got mine the stores guidelines were the same as the Lowe's policy and I wasn't able to get a veterans discount (only applicable 3 days a year). Some stores give the military discount to vets everyday but that is their local policy. So if you are like me and just a veteran you may or may not ...

Re: Gopher Wood
'Something' tells me the species did not make it through the multiple translation efforts through the ages. There in lies part of the problem. The word in Hebrew is only found once in the Bible and apparently it does not appear anywhere else in the Hebrew language. The early English translations of...

Re: Upgrade to Power Pro
I'm in the market for an upgrade at the moment so I checked out the Lowes option this morning and found: 1) the 10% off first purchase ends today. 2) the Lowes price is $1784 to ShopSmith's $1649 The 5% discount brings it to $1694.80. Free shipping at Lowes probably makes it about a wash. Am I miss...
