Well hallelujah, what do you know about that. Someone at Shopsmith is listening/thinking.
Now, if they would just
widely advertise these things there might be a chance of their returning to those sales levels they enjoyed during "the good old days".
Thank you, woodhead, for making this known.
Now, when there is a soft spot in the budget, I can jump immediately. No longer a need to wait for the circus to come to town.

Even with the 10% military discount at Lowes, Shopsmith is still cheaper.
Not exactly

The completed headstock is $2148 (at least for me) and that is delivered to my local store. A 15% discount (10 military plus 5 lowes card) comes to $1825
Webinar price is $1790 plus $133 shipping for $1842
The kit IS more through lowes but only $12. $1645 minus 15% $1398
Versus $1286 plus $100 shipping = $1386
I would guess that SS doesn't care who sells the headstock as long as more are sold. Just my 2 cents.

PS. If you would rather the pay over time version, Lowe's has the no interest for 18 months offer going for a few more days. You lose the extra 5%, but gain a decent payback schedule with no interest if paid in full in that 18 monts.

I have visited Lowes.com and saw what is offered ... I am jalous, although it is not on their Canadian site. Not even the sand papers .... ?
