I am in Decatur, AL 35601. Looking for a Shopsmith. I have never laid a hand on one but the concept is intriguing. Let me know if anyone sees a deal on one, please.

I saw one listed on ebay a few days back that was in Alabama but I cant remember where. It may have already closed but if it didn't sell it may be relisted soon

Nightwind;
Try going to EBay and go to the Shopsmith section. When the page loads go to the top right of the page where it says "list by" and select nearest from the drop down menu. The site will list all items starting with the closest to your zip code and work outward.

.... or you could try "www.shopsmith.com" for a brand new, state of the art machine...

Here's one in Eva for $400. Says it includes the belt sander. That's a reasonable asking price for a 500, if the belt sander is included.

Look and see if SS is doing a Demo close and if you see the New Powerpro and double tilt work you will be looking to see how to swing the New MKVII with PowerPro head. I think this would be the ultimate machine to have in the shop. Love my 510 and 520 but would love to add the Power Pro double tilt to my shop also.
Thanks

I have a 10e for sale but I'm in Central Michigan. Would be quite a drive. It is in excellent shape, all cleaned up and painted. When I bought it (my second one) it was missing some parts and some parts were cracked. I replaced all the needed parts and repainted where needed. Now I have to sell it as I found out I have NO ROOM for it. It is listed on Craigslist in several areas around Central Michigan if anyone is interested and in the area.
Good luck on finding one in your area. I love working with my 10er. Tim.

Personally I think a brand new shiny Mark 7 Power Pro would be my first choice. Hey I'll bet that is why I bought the power Pro last year and the mark 7 upgrade at the recent Aurora Colorado Demo event.
