Can I Get Just The Pistol Grip Part Of The Miter Gauge?

Post by suntower »

So my 'Greenie' (is this considered a Mark II or a Mark 5?) has a miter gauge but the top clamp and pistol grip are MIA.

Can I get just that bit from Shopsmith? Or is there a secondary market? Or do I would I need to get a whole new kit?

TIA,

Thanks. For some reason, I thought the old miter gauge wasn't compatible with the new accessories. Good to hear.

Bonus Question: Did this pistol grip ALWAYS come with Shopsmith? ie. was it on my original machine or was it added as standard equipment only on later models?

Just trying to figure out what parts I've lost and what was part of the original package.

Option extra $ item back then.

A greenie is a Mark 5.

Some mark 2's were green.

I am not sure the miter gauge differed.

But this new part will fit the one -I- have, right?

Yes, once you mount the mystery part.
