looks nice Tom. Pretty much like mine except it looks like you have a different start switch. No big deal as long as it works for you.
Hope you have table, rip fence and miter gauge there someware

Re: Mark VII a start and a long ways to go..
Hi Mike, How do you know the start relay you got on Ebay is good? My mkVII had a bad relay switch when I got it.. Here is a link to my thread on resolving my problem. I don't know if it will help you with your problem. It looks like the mars relay I got is not available but if you need one just look...

Re: Help Me Identify This Miter Gauge
Yes, that Supershop hold down is kinda clumsy. I haven't found the need to use it yet.

Re: Help Me Identify This Miter Gauge
It's a Fox/ Smithy Supershop miter gauge with a Shopsmith slot bar . My Supershop miter looks the same except it has a 1" wide slot bar.

Re: Mark 7 Parts Needed
I copied this from the ad on ebay. Looks like you need 2 packages, 4 rack pieces total.
"3D printed in PETG
It takes 2 pieces to replace half of the original rack, 4 pieces to replace the whole rack.
Listing is for 2 pieces (half rack)
Requires drilling of 2 new holes."

Re: Mark VII Cam follower sheave
SSMKVIIsp cont1.jpg Correct. I used .760" OD, .430"ID, .120" thick washers (one .120" washer will do. All I had was 2 thin ones to get .120") to fill in where the snap rig was and the large washer to pull the shaft tight to the speed control knob. See pics. BTW after 5 year...

Re: Mark VII Cam follower sheave
A couple of ideas: I drilled and tapped the speed control shaft for an 8-32 screw; removed the snap ring and installed a screw to pull the shaft and speed control knob tighter to the detent balls (see pic). It works great. If your detent grooves are completely worn out I would get some glass-filled ...

Re: Mark VII a start and a long ways to go..
Hi Mike, A couple of thoughts. I've noticed on mine that there is a little slop between the lower horizontal rails and the end caps making the SS wobble slightly when working. If you are going to add weight and maybe doing more heavy duty work it maybe more noticable. I thought about tack welding th...
