Paul, what exactly do you need? A model 10 tool rest (like all the other Shopsmith tool rests) is 2 parts. Do you need the base or the actual rest?

I may be able to help you out.

The 'base', no.

IIRC the actual tool rest has the same size post.


Good Night!!!!:p

JPG is right. The lower half, (if I'm not mistaken) has grooves cut in it, like the table raising teeth on the front carriage post. The upper half is the same.

I (think) I have a couple extras, so, let me know. I won't charge more than 3 or 4 hundred more (or just shipping) for them. :D (They are antiques, you know!)

Oh, Dusty, is this too much "chat room" for you?

If it is, I'm (not) sorry.

It also is "woodworking" so it needs to be moved!

Why ask me? I don't pertain to Mark series stuff!:D I do know that the ER stuff is compatible with the ER stuff. (Sorry Dusty, more "chat room" stuff.)

I thought you may know, but right the MV stem is not smooth, made to fit in the TS carriage.
