Exciting update from the Shopsmith team! 🚚 🎉

Post by Shopsmithalex »

We’ve officially shipped out more PowerPro headstocks this month than in any month since Shopsmith L.P. began! Your patience and support mean the world to us as we work through your headstock orders. We know the wait hasn’t always been easy, but production is moving strong—and we’re just getting started.

Thank you for being part of the Shopsmith family! 😊

This is good to hear. Have you seen more demand for the PowerPro machines with Shopsmith's increased on-line presence under the new management?

I recognize Jim McCann in that second picture. It would be nice if you identified the name of an employee when a picture appears. Who is the employee in the first picture?
