Fitzhugh, how did you get the box open? It can be easily removed from the planer, and then you have a box of two pieces of plastic, front and back, meeting in the middle. It's either glued or snapped into place. If snapped, there's probably a tab or two. Proper pressure in the right place should cause it to open. But where's the right place?

Thanks much

Shopsmith does have the keys available, we make them in-house. The current part number is 513411.

try ebay. I haven't ordered one from this particular seller but need one myself. I am a new shopsmith user and in the beginning stages of learning how to use the equipment i have so i am in no hurry to acquire a key. Let me know how it works. Thanks
