Mark V accessories

Post by storman »

Hello Shopsmith Community, I am a cabinetmaker here in San Francisco, and have owned my Mark V since 1983. When Shopsmith was selling their package deals at that time, I could not resist the Pro-Ultimate Accessory 10% discount deal Package. Flash 29 years later, I have gone to larger single purpose woodworking tools, and here I am with two crates and a box of tools that I no longer use. The Mark V is still used for turning, as lathe work does come up occasionally in my work. The problem now, is how to offload the surplus machinery. I've read through some of the post here on the forum, and it seems that the appreciation for all things Shopsmith (and woodworking in general) lends itself to correct distribution of the excess tooling.
I am not here to make money off of anyone! I would like to see what ever I have available go to someone that is either starting out on a Mark V and could use a inexpensive accessory, or a veteran that knows the value of a router bit still in it's protective dip.
I won't put this out on EvilBay, no time for that nonsenses, and Craigslist, only as a last resort.
I don't mean to come in here kicking up dust, just putting it out there to anyone that might be interested. I will compile a list and start taking photos for review and have that available in a few days, as long as that would be acceptable.
Thanks for checking in,
Storman

I would suggest that you request communicating by way of the private message function on this forum. The sponsor is quite clear that they do not want a trading post function. By keeping all activity via the private messaging I believe the sponsor will tolerate that.

So after you get the list/pix work done, post that it is available and let any interested parties start the communication.

This is just my opinion of what may be acceptable.;)
