Lift Assist
No. Though Lift-Assist is a device made by Shopsmith, it has nothing to do with a plastic surgeon.

Re: Which tool do you fear the most?
I respect them all. I have often said that there isn’t one safety device or improvement on a Shopsmith that costs more than a single visit to an emergency room. Yes you can cut off finger(s) even hands with a table saw or even a band saw. Some may be reattached and some may not. That said, the most ...

Re: Shopsmith Large Format Drawings, Illustrations and More
I inherited a Used Shopsmith... I wrote this recently to a young aspiring woodworker with a hand-me-down Shopsmith that hadn’t been turned on in 3 decades. —- One must spend the time to care for, maintain, adjust and develop advanced knowledge of the equipment you have.

More construction project than Woodworking
No Abby, that is not a new dog house. It will be Mrs. Santa Claus holiday decorations storage facility with wrap around shelving for bins that are in attic, my lofts, my shop, and various closets.
