Yep. Somebody needs to jump on that one with both feet.

At that price the ShopSmith is almost free. And it looks barely used.

Hands OFF please. Thanks. It is just up the road from me. I need the time to get my coins together. Just be aware that if I win it, I will rebuild each unit and make it available.

It would be nice if we could more easily time the gathering of coins with the occurrence of bargains... :) :) :)

Safe to say that I'd find a way to gather the coins if that bargain ever occurred anywhere within a 1-day drive of me…but alas, all that ever crops up around here are yet another 500 or 10E…
'78 Mark V 500 #27995 (my Dad bought new)
'82 Mark V 500 #96309
Two '47 10E's (serial#4314+6149) - one a dedicated drill press and the other a lathe
Two 10E/ER in parts slowly being restored…#26822 and #????? (SS plate missing)
SPT's: Bandsaw, Belt Sander, Strip Sander, Jointer, Jigsaw, Biscuit Joiner

I sure hope there is a 'box' that is not shown in the pictures. I am not seeing a number of items such as floating tables, table connecting tubes, telescoping legs, saw guards and sanding disc to name a few things that I would want in the 'box'.

I won't bid against you but if you win this one let me know. I might do a little horse trading with you. In fact if you need someone to go with you to pick it up holler.

I found that the time spend with the seller asking to see their garage, shop or storage area is well worth the time. I have found many a gem (several lathe chucks, accessories & attachments) by just looking around and explaining what came with or works with the Shopsmith. I take a Shopsmith catalog with me to show them. Most people selling a Shopsmith cheaply will have no idea what came with the Shopsmith or what someone added later. This could still be a bargain even without the items you listed above.
