Thanks for the link but it is not for me. I have serious doubts that it is an authentic shopsmith item. I don't know why. It just does not look real. Even if it was, it is far too expensive for me. Besides, I hesitate to work in the shop in long sleeves.

Gee it has only been listed since Oct 31, 2012 and the last bid was last Jul.

Too small fer me and the asking price too high.

Now if it had Hans's name on it . . . . .

That has been listed repeatedly on E-Bay for at least a couple years and the seller is clearly delusional on its value...I'd guess its worth more like $50-100 to someone who was interested in collecting SS memorabilia.
'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)
