Shopsmith Review
This is not a review, more like an advertisement. It just tells the capabilities of the machine as specified by Shopsmith. It appears that he has acquired one but not even used it yet. Very disappointing.
Shopsmith Mark 4, Mark 7, Mark 5 shorty, planer, bandsaw, jointer, belt sander. Grizzly central dust collection 4" PVC trunk. Shopsmith Routing System stand-alone overhead pin router.

I know for a fact that Glen Huey did receive a MK7 to test as this was reported to me in an email by the editor Chris Schwarz.
Huey is their power tool guy at "Popular Woodworking" and also an extremely talented woodworker. When I was at the WIA Conference last October I saw, and close-up inspected, a reproduction step back Shaker cupboard that he made.
