Hmmmm...if a post warranted removal, why was it approved to begin with.

Likely(I simply do not have first hand knowledge) ok when approved, and a spam link added later, THEN it was removed.

Here is a challenge for the group (from the SS rookie)!

I found a Mark 5 for sale and I asked the seller for a picture of the serial number (see attached pic). Base on the s/n documents & charts I found in this forum, 347857 was built in 1957. Looking at the picture from the add, there is what looks like a sticker with 'Model 510 R'. Does this mean this unit a greenie that was upgraded to the 510 table? It sure looks green to me???

Thanks for any/all feedback!!!

Yes. The 510 upgrade came with that sticker. See this thread about 510 table compatibility: viewtopic.php?t=36356

Thanks edma194!

That also explains the last Mark 5 that I acquired. It didn't have the sticker but did have the 510 table upgrade. I now understand that for any used SS, there could be lots of different combinations to determine it current state. Amazing to me that were are so many, but that shows how well and backward compatible these systems can be.

Hello, I am not sure where to post this. Please delete it or move it as necessary,

None of the links on this page work, except one I found that led to non-shopsmith web page. I get either a "Secure Connection Failed" error or a 404 page not found error. I have also found that a number of other subject threads do not have links that work. I am new to the forum and so badly want to reach the links shown at the top of the page.

Thank you,
Paul
