Re: Buying a Used Shopsmith Revisited

Everett The work you do is amazing. I just read about a fellow needing a Mark VII manual and you have already restored that manual and gave it away free. You did the 10E and 10ER manuals previously and are working on the 10 Preliminary Manual now with those examples in the prior postings. Someday wh...

Re: Drum Sander

Hobbyman2, I am glad you found them helpful. I would suggest that you go back to the original post and select Edit. Correct the typo Drun vs Drum in the Subject Line so others searching for the same type of content in the future can find it when they go looking. See above where I edited my Subject ...

Re: Drun Sander

Everett, I think my buddy and I are going to build one like the one the guy documented on Lumberjocks for his Shopsmith. I am glad you posted this. I think his parents are lining up repair projects for us in their house already. I've been meaning to ask for a while, what is that patch you are using ...

Re: Buying a Used Shopsmith Revisited

I think the -What can a single crosscut tell you?- instructions say that already. He used an illustration for both the face view and edge view, and then he stated "Let's start with a short length of board that is KNOWN flat, and square on the corners meaning 90 degrees" He used the degree ...

Re: Buying a Used Shopsmith Revisited

Wow!

Just what I needed! Photos of someone doing it! Any recommendations on how to best determine and measure how far off things are using the allen wrench method?

Re: Buying a Used Shopsmith Revisited

Thanks Everett! I like how you make things simple to do, and I think that it becomes logical to you just as you said, but that is also like JPG wrote, due to your experience. What can one crosscut tell you document is easy to understand and makes perfect logical sense. Now I can make one cut and kno...

Re: Buying a Used Shopsmith Revisited

Hey Everett, I have been looking for a good used Shopsmith each time I go on leave so I can take it to my mom's and work on it while on leave. A buddy of mine found one for him and we took it to his uncle's house so we can work together and learn. His is an 1980's Gray Mark V but doesn't have the tw...
