Shopsmith Forums

I knew it had been quite a while since I'd posted anything to this forum, but has it really been 3 years??? Wow! Guess I need to quit lurking and start participating more.

I had originally posted after scoring a great deal on a mark V in new condition with many extras. Here's a link to that post (if I did it right)

Well, yesterday I hit another jackpot. Mark V Planer on a powerstand; 3 bandsaw blades; vacuum extension; shaper fence and a book. All for $188
Guess the shopsmith gods are smiling on me:D

In that original thread I also posted pix of my workshop/schoolhouse under construction. Well it took much longer than I expected but it's finally finished. Actually turned out pretty good, in fact so good that my daughter asked to be married in front of it (mission accomplished 3 weeks ago)!
Hope you like it.

Guess now I should try to post a few of my meager projects.

Welcome back. Nice deal and great looking "shed."

Very clever workshop design! I see an impressive looking bell hiding in the bell tower. Real? My hunch is yes, and that it rang at the wedding.

That is pretty cool!

Nice job ....

Inside shop tour?

Welcome back.
Very nice score on the planer! Beautiful shop building, too.
I see you moved the barber poles for the wedding. Bride's request?
When I saw the first shop picture, I thought "Barber School".

that's an awesome shop.It looks great.a steal of a deal on the planer too.

That's sure to be a project even the spouse will be proud of!

I like Estate Sales too, but have never found anything that good. Nice looking shop.

Great score on the planer, I wish I could find one and be able to afford it. What size is your shop? It looks great by the way and nice garden. It all looks beautiful.
