I guess I failed in my attempt to answer bigeddys' questions:
The following is a cut and paste from another thread - same question.
Quote:
okay guys, bigeddy needs help here and I can't seem to deliver - maybe you can. He believes he watched Nick do some small item turning using the PowerStation. He wants to do the same but I can't locate the Session. Someone saw it, besides bigeddy .... HELP. Please provide a link.
I'm thinking it might have been some of those uTube session that Nick was doing rather than a Sawdust Session.
Anyone got ideas on how to equipment a power station to hold items for turning. Better yet, anyone got some pictures.
Aaah, I found it. The solution is a fixture: http://www.shopsmithacademy.com/SS_A...nd%20Lathe.pdf . This fixture provides a place to mount the Tool Rest. On the Mark V this function is served by the Carriage.
Some of the items that would be needed but are NOT included with a Power Station are detailed on page B-13 in this manual.
The items are a drive center, the tailstock and the tool rest. (top right hand side). They can all be purchased direct from Shopsmith and are often available on ebay.End Quote

Thank you... The problem has been solved. I did check out the links that you sent. Sorry I am so slow at getting back to you.. I have been all over the net and I want to thank you for your time.
Let me say I am sorry, I get a little flustered. (LITTLE) yea I know and I am sorry , next time I need to vent I will go to the bathroom turn the lights out and scream... sometimes that helps, You guys are great, thanks to Jon here at the forums , I have a greenie, after picking one up from him, my wife had purchased another one for me. I have 2 greenies. Thank all of you for your understanding and may you all have Merry Christmas's. The 2nd Greenie works great as an extended table. Then I can use it for a dedicated drill press.

re: exciting news new headstock
I saw the updated headstock at my local Lowes. It is very impressive. From the push button controls to the massive increase in moto power and speed (10,000 rpm, I beleive).They have also gotten away from having to remember to crank the speed down before you turn it off. There was hardly any vibration. It cut through a 3x3 block of hardwood as easily as if it were balsa wood. the speed changes are smooth and quick. The motor no longer bogs down at the beginning of a cut.If they show it near you I would really suggest you drop by and give it a look see. I can't say how amazed I was at this product.
