Putting my Power Pro headstock and 520 system in storage for the winter. Wonder if the Michigan cold will hard it or should I put it in warm room?
Thanks,
Tom

Re: POWER PRO
Should be ok... is it a dry cold storage? Wax the tubes and tables first as insurance. My 10 ER stays in my unheated garage all year. I have used it in 25 degree weather. I little stiff at first, but I let it warm up a minute before putting a load on it. The other Shopsmiths stay in my heated basement where I stay comfy!
