Bob, please consider putting posts like this in PMs to the individual you are speaking to.
This is a wood working forum and not a chat room.

[quote="JPG40504"]I do not think the guard in post # 7 needs any drilling etc.]
Hmm, well, you are right, but it's $45 for the old style guard vs $8 for the mounting block (and I get to use my better clear style guard).
I'm still thinking JB Weld would be the way to go. I've used it before and if you do it right it becomes a permanent fixture of whatever you use it on. I've repaired a broken mount on a washing machine. When I finally bought a new washer years later I checked and the weld was still intact. It outlasted the rest of the machine.

I fully understand the mindset!;)
I have not acquired that opinion of JBWeld.

My missing parts are on the way. I ordered the screws too just in case I decide to mount the block according to their directions (cutting, drilling, taping). I'll try JB Weld first though.
I also ordered the bandsaw coupler. I wish there were some kind of substitute for this $21 breakable piece of plastic. I even looked for a stiff rubber hose with an internal diameter of 1-1/8" that would breakaway just as easily without the expense. Or something with a cotter key like they use on outboard motor propellers to protect the motor. I've got the bandsaw cleaned and aligned, all ready to go. Just need that plastic coupler.
On a side note, was watching NCIS reruns on my dvr and spotted this on the episode "Alibi." Gibbs finally got a power tool:)
I'm sure someone here will recognize it.

Almost. A scroll saw drives the blade in both directions. (Think of a coping saw from High School, except powered.) This is a jigsaw, which pulls down with power, but lifts up with a spring. As an added feature, the upper mount assembly also has a piston, to provide an air source to blow away chips.
And, Jethro's Model 10 has been verified as a 10ER.

See my thread in the "Community" section, about "Jethro Gibbs"ing a Model 10.
I've had 2 different NCIS fans "Jethro Gibbs" my 10ER in my front room. (I'm NOT going to say just how many times I've rested an "adult beverage" on a Model 10 table!):D
Notice that in neither episode where the 10ER showed up with ethanol included, did he actually power up his Shopsmith. Smart man!

Oh, that "gooseneck light is quite the rarity for a Model 10. I've seen 2 in my life, and currently have one.
