Has anybody purchased this DVD series? Are they worth the price?

I think its overpriced for what you get, but its worth it for the most part.

The production quality is good, but the output quality is not-so-great. Content is similar to the sawdust sessions (or from them)

I have to say that these DVDs have been extremely helpful. Especially, when I tore into my headstock for it's annual maintenance. It was great to have a portable DVD player in the shop, with a remote. That way, I could watch Nick do his tear down. Then pause the DVD so I could keep up with Nick.

I have the set. I purchased it on e-bay (when ShopSmith had a presence there) for a bit below the store price but... not much. Maybe saved $10-$15. Kind of expensive...

yea, but really good info that is nice to have at my finger tips.
