OKAY...I guess it is time that I come clean.

No. I do not have a PowerPro. I received a Mark V headstock from another Shopsmith owner. He shipped the headstock to me in that box.

Now really guys. Do you think that I would put you on if I had been able to purchase a PowerPro. No way. I would be too proud of having it to not tell the world.

Maybe he has been dumpster diving!:D After he has already admitted to scarfing raw materials by curb grazing!:rolleyes:

Aw, come on Dusty! Guys, he's being suspiciously quiet about this. Dusty is someone that immediately responds to things on this forum. I wouldn't be surprised if he was in on the testing program and just laying low. Perhaps, he will surprise us with a detailed report soon. Dusty, don't you know how proud we will all be for you if you have this thing. Fess up!

Dusty is 'busy' trying to figger out how to get his 'new' DeWalt saw to work correctly. Either that or he has gone to Phoenix to 'find' some parts.

Yup, I've been dumpster diving. Empty box and packing material - no headstock.

Whose address was on the box(no not the one in Ohio, the one in AZ).:D


P.S. I agree that does not look adequate!

There is packing material (more of the same) missing from this picture. I used it to ship parts to another member.

Box does not appear stout enough for 80#. Rolled up paper is IMHO not crush resistant enough to hold the headstock's position within the 'box'.

Anybody know what 'side/end' was facing 'up'.
