Shopsmith mounted overarm pin router or at least the portion that holds the router. You can see the similarity to the stand alone version in this picture.

That's the Shopsmith overhead router attachment.

Yes, that's the current (or most recent; it may have been discontinued) version of the overarm pin router that attaches directly to the Shopsmith.

I got the arm a few years back on ebay and Shopsmith at that time still had the table for purchase separately.

Mine was a stand alone item. Cant' remember if the router table was part of it or not. Didn't use it much and decided to take it off.
