So not too bad of deals around here... Almost took the 10ER to restore because of everyone here and the inspiring pictures of the final products... alas Veto'd by the wife.

Ad is 2 hours old, so not sure if still there or not.

Ad reads:

This is a Shopsmith Mark 5 frame, headstock, tailstock, work table, extension table, two fences and sanding disc. The motor runs but transmission needs adjustment to get power to the spindle. Also, the spindle is stuck in the fully extended position. This paint scheme is rare, only used between 1962 to 1964 to celebrate Shopsmith's 10th anniversary. Free to the first person to come get it

John, didnt your parents teach you, "Thou shall not steal".

This might be a bargain depending on who is handling the estate sale April 15-17 in southeast Oklahoma City.

Almost want to buy this $40 Jointer because of the upgraded feather guard and it's dirt cheep, just needs some TLC. Great price if anyone needs a jointer i guess.
