What Model Shopsmith has a power switch on the bottom?

Post by rlkeeney »

I found this in a Craigs List ad. I looked around a bit trying to figure out what exactly it was but no joy. What model Shopsmith has a power switch on the bottom?

Not a Shopsmith, it is a clone......it is a copy, probably a Total Shop. Many were put out under different names, here is one from House of Tools in western Canada:
