Re: Is it just me ?

I just don't care anymore. You guys need to let it go, and move on with life.

Re: Before Turning On Your Shopsmith Lathe, Watch This!

For years with my 1980 model 500 I could never figure out why the lathe centers weren't ever perfectly aligned. Also, none of my SPT drive hubs would be inline with the drive hubs on the headstock, even the jointer and the lower high speed shaft hub were off. There was always a misalignment of about...

Re: Is it just me ?

An alternative (more work) would be to continue the original thread but insert a linking index at the top post. Yep, more work. I work enough already. If you want to do that, feel free. For me, that thread can keep getting pushed down the list, and end up in the "forum abyss" where thread...

Re: My Growth Rings videos

Chad, I certainly appreciate all that you’ve been doing to make sure Scott’s videos are posted. When I visit the forum I always look to see if new videos have been posted for Scott, Nick, Stumpy Nubs, and Ron’s collection. Being new to both ShopSmith and finer woodworking Nick and Scott’s videos ha...

Re: My Growth Rings videos

Scott here. First off, I think I like this new approach, Chad. Secondly, I'm a little surprised to hear that I'm not very active here. Apparently I interact a lot less than I think I do! Don't feel bad, Scott. Apparently I was too active for some on the forum this week. Which should more than make ...

Re: Is it just me ?

I suggest those 100 posts be put in a new thread for new comers to peruse. I agree. That's what should be done with them. The problem with one thread for all the videos made it difficult to comment on a single video. Example; you want to comment on a video that's on page 3 of the thread, but your c...

Re: My Bride is Gonna Kill Me! Buying a Shopsmith Mark 2 on a Business Trip!

A SS Sawsmith 2000 (with casters and the short Excalibur fence system, that will be headed to North Carolina) Congrats! Did you get 48" rails? Excalibur was a Canadian company, now out of business, and their assets have been sold. Nobody seems to have picked up the product line. The designer o...

Re: My Growth Rings videos

Chad, as a longtime forum member, and also as a newly-minted woodworking-business entrepreneur, I might be able to provide some useful insight on a few issues. Disclaimer: I hereby plead guilty to using this forum as a very friendly test audience for new-product ideas and marketing. First of all, N...
