Shopsmith Forums

That may be the ultimate obsession when it comes to Shopsmith's.

My wife knows how much I like Shopsmiths but I don't think she would let me put that in our dining room.

I don't know that I would call it a Bargain 'available' at $4500. That table has been for sale for a long time now. It is an unusual item with different Model 10 headstocks from a first version 10E to the last version 10ER headstocks with carriages and the one larger base to match the headstocks. It has a great setup using the quills to adjust the table to level. I do wonder why he put the carriages on backwards.

101uniqueantiques is a longtime Shopsmith parts seller and has parted out a lot of Shopsmith tools. If you need Model 10E or 10ER parts he probably has it although I haven't seen him list any of the rare parts.

Hadn't checked Craigslist in a while, but looking today I see a Mark VII listed outside of Tucson, AZ for anyone interested. Only $400 and looks to be well kept. Don't see these come up very often, but then again a Mark VII isn't as rare here as finding a decent 10ER for sale.

Looks good - wonder about the quill though and the bearings in the box.

This is the best looking 10ER that I have ever seen here in this area...unfortunately, $850 is outside my budget for picking up one of these. It is in Mesa, AZ if anyone is interested.

How can you tell? Is it the accessory board that comes with it?

I think JPG is basing that on the ShopSmith decal on the back side of the headstock.

The Shopsmith logo on the back side of the head stock. I have one here.

Also the 'unique' accessory board(smaller than typical diy instructions included with initial purchase).
