I found this on Craigs List about 150 miles away. Is this worth investigating. The asking price is $150 OBO.
I don't know much about Shopsmith scroll saws. However I do have two that are from companies that have gone out of business.

good buy
It is a little older but it is a good buy I think. Last year I sold one that mounts on SS for 400. This year I am trying to sell one for 200 and finally did. I have one like yours newer black with see through plastic, got it for 200. I am planning on selling it for 350 if i can . Will see lol.
I think you have a good deal but would not hurt to get him down some more for a cushion in case something does break.

Looks decent enough(table is aluminum so that is not rust). Tis the older style(but upgradable) blade tension/blade holders.
Make sure it includes the blade holders and any spares if existent.

It appears SS no longer 'offers' the stand alone model.(???)rlkeeney wrote:Anyone know what the model number is for this saw?
I have emailed the owner but he has yet to respond.
No phone number in the ad.
555272 would be my 'guess'.

I got one a few months ago off Craigslist for $50. It had a broken rear table mount. I was able to obtain the part from SS as well as the blade holder and clear cover upgrades.

scroll saw
no longer make ss mounted ones. I have two on stands and one stand alone. They are worth the money especially when you can buy them in great condition at a fraction of what you can buy them new.
