Nick,
Shopsmith certainly knew what they were doing when they put you to work. I have most of your books, but signed copies would be great to have.
LONG LIVE SHOPSMITH.....

Uhh Chuck,
He means a book, you know, it has pages, and he wrote it.
See post 4 of this thread, oh never mind, just look here:Nick wrote:"What I think would be helpful is a section that highlights projects built using the Mark V and its accessories...What do you build that shows off the capabilities/features of the Mark V?"
Yes, section like that would be nice but it's a little harder to get going than what you might imagine. I asked for contributors almost a year ago to send pics for a section like this on the Academy web site and got exactly one response. And the person who responded didn't even bother to send his pics]Shopsmith has a reasonably large supply of my books that it no longer offers for sale, and we have been toying with the idea of offering a FREE book, your choice and signed by the author[/color], for one set of pictures showing a single project that's been built at least partly using Shopsmith equipment. Perhaps that would shake a few photos loose, but I just haven't had time to get the program together.

Not trying to jump the gun, but would this included painted projects as well as 'stained/finished' projects? I'm just about to finish my 1st bookcase using the SS but I'm painting it white, at least initially until my 3 year old adds the pink and purple she wants. I made the cove molding on the SS and although not perfect, not bad for a first attempt.
