Is the part to the right of the saw guard in view 1,4,5, a SS part? If it is what is it?

Looks like a Shopsmith speed increaser.

Looks like a pretty good deal with all of the SPTs.

Yep, looks like he is right. I wish a deal like that would come my way. Speed increaser, belt sander and even the strip sander fetch decent money for resale. With a dust collector and a 510 with a shelf, band saw and a jointer I can't imagine it would last long at that price.

Thanks for the reply. Sold this morning. Thank goodness now I don't need to explain another SS to SWMBO.

Thank god. I was wondering how to broach the subject of a drive to Vegas with the LOML. Dodged that bullet.

Yes, looks like a speed increaser. Looks like there is also a dovetail jig on the other side of the saw guard. Definitely a nice deal with all the extras.
