accessory Stands
I have an extra headstock V, I thought about mounting on dedicated stand with bandsaw. The only stands I find are already equipped with motor. Would I be better off selling the head and purchase what SS has or does such a stand exist?

Re: accessory Stands
If I had an "extra" headstock that I wanted to put into service, I would build a dedicated Shorty (or a "Mini") depending on what functionality was needed in the shop. You have stated that you want (need) a bandsaw. To satisfy that requirement, all you would need is a "Mini". If this was your choice, be aware that what you would be building does not support the use of a carriage thus no "main table".
Another way to go might be the Shop Deputy: http://www.shopsmith.com/ownersite/cata ... deputy.htm
The Shop Deputy would be a very versatile way to utilize your headstock while leaving you with several expansion future options.

A mini(or shorty) is a Mark 5/V/7 base with truncated way and bench tubes.winzer900 wrote:I have the bandsaw. Does the "Mini" come prebuilt or are there plans avail.? Thanks
YOU truncate the tubes.
Or buy the base from someone who has.
If you are near San Diego I think I know of a 'source'.
If not, they appear on E-bay often.

Re: accessory Stands
This is the majority of what you would need to mount your headstock for use as a power station for your bandsaw
