Black Locking Toggle Switch

Post by lwedwards »

Has anyone ever seen a black toggle switch on a shopsmith Mark V? All the one's I have seen are red. There is a listing for a headstock on ebay, the seller says is a 2006 with only 2 hours of use yet the switch is black, I have a 2006 and the switch is red.:confused:

I have not seen one but I do believe that Shopsmith has once again changed manufacturers for the power switch. I can't tell you why I think so but I believe the new one is black. I think someone here posted to that affect.
