Help Identifying Parts

Still going through all the parts that I received last weekend. This is the last of them. If anybody has any idea what these are I would be grateful. The item in the first picture was attached to the top of the fence.

Thanks,

Lets see - the brackets in photo 3 appear to be part of an outfeed extension table. Since you have a 510 that was upgraded to the 520, then its likely those brackets are the 510 ones from the outfeed table that were left over.

Photo 4 appears to be hold-downs. These are often used on jigs, especially ones where people do things like hold workpieces at various angles.

Photo 1 is a t-track, but its unclear from the photo if its a shopsmith one or not. In fact, it looks like on the far side there is a sliding t-nut, which implies that it might have been used to adapt a standard miter guage or standard t-nuts.

Unknown 1 is a flip-up fence stop part, see 555808 if this is for a 510.

Unknown 2 are the brackets for the belt cover that would be used with the Power Stands.

Did the outfeed table brackets(#3) fit over the 510 round rails, or the tubes(still good for 520 use)?

Item 1 is by Shopsmith, it mounts on the top of a 520 fence used mostly in drill press/rouuter/shaper mode. It came with adjustable stops. I used it yesterday to drill holes in multiple pieces the same distance from the drill bit. It may have other uses and I don't know why the stops could not have just been used on top of the fence without it.

I think Nick has a video on some other uses with a sled and I know I have some other accessories that can be used with it to hold long work during compound angle cuts.

I think Nick introduced it as an attachment on top of a "plain" fence (one with no miter slot).
