Shopsmith Forums

Tomorrow I am going to I look at a used (teal) Shopsmith scroll saw. This is a Mark V mount (not the standalone).

Can anyone tell me what mechanical issues I may encounter and should be on the look out for in this model?

Thanks,

Al

I have nothing that will be deal breaking, but you can check to see if the big knob on the top clicks when you turn it. Clicking is a good thing.

You can also check the blade holders and quick release if it has it.
