That's for the old Mark VII, right? Shopsmith, as it exists now, didn't make that machine ever and doesn't support it. It was made by a previous owner of the Shopsmith brand. It wouldn't hurt to call them however. The web site (on this page) says they have "very few repair parts" for that model. I don't know how dated that is or what kind of old parts they might still have, but a phone call won't cost anything. Other than that, eBay, CL, and other 3rd party sources.

I too have an old Mark VII.

During an email exchange with Doug Reed he wrote "The Mark VII was a great product with an interesting history. If you ever need parts, (Shopsmith has none) try Battel's Hardware in Whittier, CA."

10 ER, stripped down.
Basic 10ER, Parts machine. Will be a semi-dedicated drill-press machine.
10 ER, a "survivor" of the trailer fire, in the back yard, needing restoration. Has a Mk5 headrest. Finally, stripped down.
Numerous parts, for Model 10 stuff. Except for lower saw guard, A and B adapters, I've got it.

Looking for one more, or some 9 inch extension table raisers.

Too bad! I just sent a complete set with the base and old tubes to the Junk yard. I didn't have any where to store the old base.

The pics was from an ebay auction... just showing what I need -

My Mark VII is without the handles and I have to grab the metal shaft to lock/unlock.
