Just wondering what you think is the most rarest shopsmith part?
I just purchased SS 10er spt adapter kit (complete) that I thought was pretty rare.

Until this week possibly a Mark VII speed cam. Now maybe Mark VII front way tube rack gear.

rare part
I agree that the setup you recently got is a rare SS item, although they do show up on ebay occasionally.
One part that I have only seen once on ebay (and I've been watching pretty steady for a long time) & was never with any other 10 er I found, is a 10er lower table saw blade guard.

This one came with my dad's machine, so I always figured it was part of the package, but I figure it either broke often or was an optional part because I just don't see it.
I'd be curious if that's just my experience or if they're scarce.

My dad's 1951 10er, 2 more 10er's, same vintage, a Goldie MK5, a 510 shortie with 34inch tubes, bandsaw, jointer, jigsaw, belt sander, a ton of small SS goodies and still looking...you just can't have enough Shopsmith stuff
I THINK there was just one on ebay. Is that the one your talking about??trainguytom wrote:I agree that the setup you recently got is a rare SS item, although they do show up on ebay occasionally.

The lower guard was not part of the standard package. They are very scarce. I have seen three complete power mount adapter kits and no lower saw guards in my limited travels looking at 10E/10ER's. However, I see the lower guards on Ebay more often than a complete original power mount adapter kit.trainguytom wrote:I agree that the setup you recently got is a rare SS item, although they do show up on ebay occasionally.

Hello
This is my first time posting. I have had a shopsmith for a number of years. I have used it for small stuff in the basement. A friend had one who really loves his after spending many hours watching his dad on his. I bought a used one. I am getting back into using it and the attachments. I wanted more attachments. I bought a 55 with attachments. One of the things I found in the box of items was a different style drive hub. I was hoping someone with alot more experience than me could shed some light on it. I tried to post a picture not sure if its going to post. The hub has some extra grooves right next to the other ones.
