10E for sale close/cheap

[chapmanruss]

GetterDone,

I'm not sure what you mean by,

I have not decided if this will just be a parts machine or?
Because this 10 E #3868 was slim on the accessory side of things.

It looks pretty complete and even an optional Jointer/Shaper Fence.

Below is a restored comparable Model 10E to serial number 3868 that you show. The end of the Base has been cut off by a previous owner for some unknown reason. This one was upgraded to the Metal Extension Table and related parts.

.
I did notice yours has the Metal Extension Table and related parts. Does that serial number have an "E" prefix (E-3868) or just numbers? It appears to have parts from later Model 10's and some non-Shopsmith items. One downside I see is the Table Riser Arm, on the Table Post, is broken. These come up for sale often at online auctions. It is also an item that was not included with early Model 10E's.

I looked at the post I made last and Thought
I didn't give enough Information in my post and the Direction I am thinking of proceeding.

So, I will try to Clear the waters here.

The first 10E with the serial #E 3868 I purchased just as pictured below.
There are several things that would be nice to have that were not included in this purchase.
This one does have the E in front of the serial #.

So, I started looking on E bay and to buy some of the stuff was going to cost More than what I paid for the machine.

So, I started looking for another one.

The one in the pictures below was 3 hours away from me.
But 20 minutes from a Friend of mine.
He went and got it yesterday and put it in his storage shed.
I don't even know the Serial # yet.

So now that I have 2 of these and a Speed Changer

I am thinking of 3 directions to go with this.

Option 1: Fix 1 machine with speed changer fully equipped and sell off the other parts.

Option 2: Fix both machines and sell 1 with minimal attachments.

Option 3: Fix both machines and just leave them in different configurations.

I like #3.

[GetterDone]

I like #3.

That is Probably what will Happen.

I have my Eye on another one.

I said I was not going to mess with the 10ER's and that's where I messed Up.
Saying that I was Not.

[GetterDone]

I got some Belts ordered from the V-Belt Guys tonight.

I will update if they fit my Speed Changer.

[GetterDone]

Not to add anymore confusion to My thread.
Someone Needs to take the Shovel away from me.

I will probably purchase this one within a week or two.

Getterdone,

You have answered about my following comment,

I did notice yours has the Metal Extension Table and related parts. Does that serial number have an "E" prefix (E-3868) or just numbers? It appears to have parts from later Model 10's and some non-Shopsmith items.

That Model 10 may be more comparable to a later one than I posted.

By the way didn't we warn you collecting Shopsmith Tools can be habit forming?

Yes Sir,

I was For Warned and it has not phased me yet.

The other day my wife asked me how many Shopsmith's do I have. I told her 12 but she said she counted more than that. Between the 6 restored/working and 6 waiting to be restored there are 12 which I pointed out to her. Of course I wasn't counting the Crafter's Station. Power Stations and all the SPT's.

Other than not having an extra set of Bench and Way Tubes I believe I have enough parts for an additional Mark V that could be a 510.

That Funny Right There.

My Wife has No Idea How many I have.
I have snuck these in under the Radar and she does not go to the shop. Thankfully.
