There are also some new files in the Misc Literature under Hans folder.

Another gem from the 1951 era that came from a Sunday newspaper comic strip in the San Francisco Chronicle October 21, 1951 that was part of Hans personal files. Some things change, some things do not....

I am sure Hans chuckled a bit when he clipped this piece of Shopsmith history!

I guess that shows how popular the SS was back then. Priceless!

Amazing. Shopsmith in a Sunday newspaper strip.
Nice find Everett!

You said
In a previous thread about 10ER Accessories that discussed the Miter Gauge, I came across this file in Hans collection. It shows a 1954 date but we believe it was available before that.
I have only seen the front page of that document until now, Thanks Everett.

That Special Miter Gauge used the Mark 5 parts with a Model 10 bar to allow the use of the Safety Grip and the more accurate stop points (45-90-45) on the Model 10's. Since the Mark 5 sales started in 1954 the date on the document should be correct or at least very close. I have 2 of these Special Miter Gauges and they used the "Greenie" paint on them. One of the goals in going from the Model 10ER to the Mark 5 was to give Model 10 owners some upgrade abilities. This was one of them. Making the Special Brackets for using the SPT's was another. Most people do not realize the Mark 5 Shaper Fence fits the Model 10's table also, in fact the first manual for it shows it in use on a Model 10ER. See PDF Below

Shaper Fence 08-53.pdf

It would have been nice if all the documents and manuals had dates on them.
I've known this one for years. The Model 10 shaper/jointer
fence, is weak at best. This one is WAY better.

Russ, thanks for posting this on my birthday. Turned 60
that day. (1.5 more years to go, until I can retire!)

Thanks, Everett!

As many of you know already, the current owner is now me.

I acquired it last year and picked it up a few months ago in Minnesota.

That is absolutely an unbelievable find. It is the upper class of my purchase from Skip. That would be the pristine copy of the first edition of PTWFE owned by Hans Goldschmidt and signed to Hans by the author that I now own.
