He had a couple guys checking things out and I nearly burst at the seams trying to say how great the 7 was compared to the V. He and I talked for a couple hours about Shopsmith corporate both good and frustrating. His inside knowledge was very valuable.
He is pushing corporate for the return of classes!!
We came to the conclusion he had sold me my V 500 in Missoula nearly 35 years back.
I told him about writing the woodcrafter magazine blurb (which had not heard about), and later in the day took him a few copies of the scan.
Mike has to be one of finest ambassadors for Shopsmith.
Have him show you his second bike!!! Wow!!
Be well,
Ben
