Re: Drilling Torque Limiter?
I don't have a Mark VII, but from what I understand it has the same variable transmission (sheaves) that the Mark V has. So, if a drill bit, sawblade, etc. gets stuck in the material then it is possible that the belt will slip in the sheaves preventing damage to the motor. You should recognize it fa...

Re: jointer
Sorry, I can't offer much help without seeing a picture for this. Perhaps one of the other forum members has had this problem before and knows what you are describing. Know that the Jointer Fence Tilt Quadrant is one of the most replaced parts on Shopsmith equipment so it is in their Frequently Orde...

Re: jointer
It is running uphill, but what direction do you mean by uphill? Pics would be helpful here. I am wondering if perhaps you mean that the fence is angled to the jointer bed. If so, the same handle that adjusts the jointer fence left<->right also adjusts the angle of the jointer fence. Please see the l...

Re: My new to me shopsmith mark v took a little bath
Dunk it in a kiddie pool full of rice maybe? ;) In all seriousness though, definitely get fans on it pronto to dry it out. Could even use a leaf blower or compressed air to try to get any trapped moisture out of the headstock. Also, wouldn't hurt to clean the waytubes, tables, etc. immediately and g...

Re: Padding a surface??
Ed,
What about crubber (cork/nitrile rubber)? This is the stuff that is used as a vise liner. It shouldn't mar the surface and has some grip (non-slip).

Re: DC3300 suction power?
Thanks Ed. Yeah, I agree. The units don't matter for my case because both used a 2-1/2" hose so the aperture was identical between the DC-3300 and the ShopVac, so it was a relative measurement comparison between the two. Bottomline is the ShopVac was noticeably better than my DC-3300 both in me...

Re: DC3300 suction power?
I don't think an anemometer is a good measure of airflow. Speed of airflow, sure. But, the anemometer ignores how much air is being moved. Kind of the difference between voltage and current. I can blow through a straw at, say, 10 mph. But, I can't come close to the airflow of your screened-in porch...

Re: Woodpeckers MORTY - loose tenon router jig
Yeah, not trying to talk anyone into or out of this product, but it does appear to be of limited value (from my perspective). If you are fortunate enough to already have all of the router bits and a good router, then MORTY would ONLY be an incremental cost of $500. As Ed mentioned a full set of rout...

Re: Beefy 10ER cart
Yeah, if I ever get to changing the height of my Mark V, I am going to use this cart as an example for a base for it. I like everything about it...except that large cabinet.
