I am trying to find out what some of the items are that came with my SS 10 ER. I have set up a slides show of images for your perusal should you want to see them. You can view it at http://www.echowebservices.com/shopsmith/
Also if anyone knows where I can get a mounting bolt for the Jigsaw I would appreciate it And also a bolt to compress the drum sander so I can actually use it
Have fun looking. If you can tell me what some of the items are, just tell me the title of the picture (shown below it) and what letter the item is if there was one.
Pardon the state of the machine I ma trying to clean it up a little at a time. Any helpful hints are also greatly appreciated. Ok by now maybe I should have made 3 posts
I do not know about the rest, but in the picture referring to a bench dog, "A" (for the Mark V #505629) is the stop rod that goes through the hole on your miter guage that helps with the table alignment and certain duplicating operations; and "C" (for the Mark V #521900) is a hold down for doing mortises with your drill press.

15. C is part of the mortising jig 2. C is more to the mortising jig. 13 A appears to be part of a Shopsmith jointer.

Hi! If you order up a copy of "Power Tool Woodworking For Everyone" from Shopsmith, you will find references and photos of the use of some of these items. The book was written for the 510/520 but many references still apply.
One small thing - The photo you called planer blades are really a molder head with blades and a jointer head with blades.
Best Wishes!

Wow! there are a lot more pictures then I saw before. I did not view them all before. On the page titled Router Mortise and Something else "A" is the stop rod again, "B" looks like the router chuck with a bit rusted into it, and "C" is the rest of the Mortising attachment along with some of the bit/chisel sets. On the page titled couplers, some of those may fit the ends of the current Mark V Power Coupler, but some of them are not familiar. On the page titled Planer plate etc. , "A" looks like the body of the jointer. and on the next page, Planer / Shaper Blades, it looks the jointer head is "B".

Thanks for the feedback - especially the book reference - I will go look that up.
I knew the mortise jigs and the router bit - thanks for confirming it for me. I can't wait t see what others can see that they recognize.
You know - now that I am looking I forgot to mention something else.. on photo 8 (grinding wheel) on the inset image you can see a golen looking spacer - I just bought that at the local hardware store so I could put the grinding wheel on it. The ACTUAL spacer that was on this stem was approx. 1/2 thick so I couldn't put the grinding wheel on. Hence the store bought washer. I wanted to get a photo of the stem w/o the wheel on it and the actual spacer in place. I will try for that when I get out of bed tomorrow (today at this point)

The thing with the 1/2" spacer is a dado arbor.

From the brackets of some kind picture A, looks like a piston shaft for an air compressor. i just took one apart and it looks like that. The compressor was one that is compressor and motor together as one unit. I had to take the shaft loose from the concentrical part of the thing to get the motor out. the pointed end goes down and the round end attaches to the piston.
Image 7 B - looks exactly like the end of a drag link ball and socket (part of the steering linkage) for a riding mower. I just replaced mine on my garden tractor.
