Old Mark VII. Note that the listing says the seller's grandfather was a dealer and a "dealer's manual" is included.

Sawsmith 2000 on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224953322353?m ... nl%3Dmkcid

Owner says priced to sell at $200, and that's the minimum bid. It has the tubular 510 type rails and no extension tables shown so not worth an awful lot more than that. If you have one already you might want it for parts or to make a Frankensaw of some kind.

Getting ready to put my Mark V with the 520 upgrade up for sale. This was my first Shopsmith and I bought it with the understanding that I'd have limited space. That's no longer the case so I'm slowly moving to full size equipment. It's in good shape and runs well. It has quite a few goodies with it:

- 520 upgrade
- Bandsaw
- Jointer
- Strip sander
- Overhead router package
- Many small accessories, including sanding discs, replacement disc material, lathe centers, NIB bandsaw blades, t-nuts for the miter slots and 520 fence, chisel sharpening jig, etc.

I paid $1500 for it all and I'm hoping to recoup as much as possible, but open to offers. Located in Reno, NV.

The Sawsmith 2000 listed above is now down to a minimum bid of $50, buy it now price of $100. This guy wants to get rid of this thing. Anybody in Riverside CA area could pick this up and sell it for parts. It's hard to bargain through eBay, they don't like direct contact between buyer and seller, but I bet this guy would give the machine away to someone who came and picked it up.
