OK, with out of balance stuff VERY SLOW is the rule!
Light cuts, too.

That piece would be NO PROBLEM for a REAL
Shopsmith, but, alas, you don't have one.

Model 10, with a DC motor conversion. Speeds
down to 10 RPM, and up to 10,000.

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.

I see that this forum is filled with HIGHLY OPINIONATED Peeps.
I also see, that I will soon just be a lurker and NOT participate.
To bad, so sad.
Keep up to good work, clique members. I am outtahere!

Don't pay any attention to Skou's remarks; heck, the rest of us don't. :D

I hope you will continue to post ExtraMile, because all the posts from different folks is what makes this Forum worth reading. We have our occasional family fights but a lot less than most Forums.

A clique is a group of like minded opinions.

As you have observed there are differing opinions here. We tolerate each other. We respect other's opinions in spite of disagreeing. We do attempt to point out 'the error' in their opinion though.

We also express sympathy to those who are encountering our own human frailness by poking a bit in a friendly manner. No harm is meant.

Tis the occasional super sensitive individual who upsets the apple cart.

Most of us have been around long enough to not get excited over something
someone 'said'.

If my "Y'all surprised" comment set you off I am sorry. It is just that I been there done that.

Also it is not surprising that initial attempts to post pix are not successful. We all went through that learning curve with this new(to us) software. The previous software was 'easier/more intuitive'.

Please Reconsider! Burning bridges only makes sense if at war!

If there were no disagreements on this forum it would be eternally boring ! Don't mistake humor and repartee for anything other than what it is.... good fun. And as for calling a 10ER a real SS well heck there are lots of people that enjoy old technology. Whether it is better than the new is where the repartee begins :rolleyes:

Come on Extramile, don't let the banter get to you. You look like you can add a lot to the forum. I for one can use all the help I can from guys like you! Besides, I want to see what that Mulberry grain looks like! :D
