The Show Case Thread

Post by Spooner »

Can anyone post the thread that members show case or brag about their projects in? I'd love to see what others are making out there with their SS.

For that purpose, we usually just start a new thread under General Woodworking. Browse through those, and you will find some nice projects.

Spooner,

If it's machines you wanted to see, here are three more of my restorations. You have already seen a Mark 5 Greenie I restored in your other thread. Below is a Mark 5 Goldie made in October 1960.

This is the first Shopsmith I restored. It is a Model 10ER I purchased after I thought it would be fun to do after seeing what Skip Campbell at MKC Tools had done with some restorations. I still have it today and do not plan on selling it. There have been additions to it. It came with a Jig Saw and I added the Magna Model 4E Jointer to it.

This next one I finished restoring last November on it's 71st anniversary. It is one of the original Shopsmith Model 10E's S/N 1077.

Now as Dennis said you can browse through previous posts to find more. There are a lot of threads on restorations and if it is woodworking projects you are looking for there are a multitude of them in all of the different Forum Headings.

Browse through the "Beginning Woodworking", and "General Woodworking", forums, Projects are usually posted there. :)

Some years there have been omnibus threads where members post their projects also. :)

Don't forget that some of the projects were restorations of the machines themselves and there is a thread for that too
