Ringmaster

Post by jrjensen »

Looking for a safety shield and manual for the ringmaster. Does anyone
know if they are available either from PNI or some where else? Is the CD
that came with the ones sold by SS any good--available?

When I got my used Ringmaster, I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me a manual. I would expect that they should also be able to provide parts. Good luck with it.

You might try "woodenpost.com", they have a large assortment of Ringmaster accessories, training videos, etc. I have not ordered anything from them.

Ringmaster doesn't come up in a search on the Shopsmith site anymore either.

Yes it looks like it gone. I went to the video Nick did and clicked the link and the part number can't be found in the system. I guess they didn't sell well enough or ????

I was thinking of getting one someday but it didn't make this year home budget cuts. Wonder if it will revert back to being available the wooden post??

Thanks to all for the quick replies. I'll try calling the PNI Corp tomorrow and see if they can help.

BTW: ryanbp01 - Would you happen to still know the website address? TIA

Hi,

Before these became a exclusive shopsmith item they could be purchased at:
http://www.woodenpost.com/

I had written them due to the fact the ringmaster doesn't seem to be a shopsmith order able item anymore. This is the response:
"I have not been made aware ShopSmith stopped handling it."

I then replied asking if they were checking into it... so still no clear answer if they will again be selling them in the future.
