Just acquired a Shopsmith from a friend who has MS. He doesn't remember when he purchased it and I think from viewing pictures, it is a Mark V 500. Anyway, the spindle is 5/8" and the one saw blade that I have is 1 1/4" bore. I am wondering if a 5/8" arbor will fit the head spindle so I can use 5/8" bore blades. Thanks for your thoughts and informaition.

If you are looking for a 5/8" arbor that will work on your 500, I think this is what you need. I don't have a 500 so if this is wrong, the experts will correct me shortly.
