Shopsmith Forums

I have to ask what is a ring master?

Here's the Company - http://www.ringmasterlathe.com/store/ri ... egory_id=2

Shopsmith used to sell them, but they are still sold to fit Shopsmith.

And they fetch a couple hundred bucks on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R4 ... 5573.m1684

Mark 2 in Tucson if anyone is interested:

Well crud ad is gone and he won't return my calls.

My experience on CL, that means it is sold. I missed out on a cast iron older 14" Delta BS a guy was asking 100$, I called and emailed an hour after it was posted, never heard back, posting went down a couple hours later.

The ad came up for me still

We maybe talking about 2 different postings. One might be in CA the other is a markII

Yea, the super-hot deals don't last even a day. I was lucky enough spot a Ringmaster listed on my local CL for $20, just 20 minutes after it was posted. I called the seller immediately. He had already been called by someone in Chicago, but wanted to sell it locally, to someone who would actually use it. When I picked it up, the seller said that he had gotten several more calls within the first couple of hours.

Not exactly a bargain but a real beauty.
