Seems like a helluva collection. They don't mention it, but is that a planer I see included in there?

Yes, I see a Shopsmith-mount planer. i think there have been 1 or 2 other Power Pros on CL. But still a rare item to turn up used on CL. Sounds like neither owner used them very much if at all.

It's not mine... But I ran out to the shop just to make sure all my SS stuff was still there.

It is really a Shopsmith Mark V Model 520 with a Power Pro Headstock. It does not have the double tilt feature.

Nonetheless, it is certainly worth every bit of the asking price even with a 10 hour drive to go get it.

Don't bother. That's not the machine for sale. I was suspicious and google image searched the image for the same image. It came from a woodworking mag review of the new Mark 7. I then texted the owner and asked if the pic was of his machine. He replied with a pic of what he actually has, which is an old Mark 5.

If it's too good to be true... It's not...

Thanks for the update.....

I repeat, the picture in the ad is NOT what this guy is selling. He took the photo off the internet.
