Sometime a SS table is too small...

Post by Beave2012 »

Sometimes a Shopsmith has to small of a table. So sometimes I use two.

Cross cutting an 8' long piece of plywood is hard, so I needed more support. Wheeled over my other and now I have all the support I need. Whoever thinks shopsmiths can't handle the job just doesn't have enough of them.

Also after the previous I despise bevels on a Shopsmith comments I decided to try again and did 192 bevel cuts at 30 degrees. Now I'll just despise 45s, because the 30s were not that bad.

Right on! :cool:

One of the main arguments for having multiple SS's if you have room IMHO. I set the 10ER's as outfeed for plywood sheets with the M5 as an infeed support. Never felt uncomfortable .... :)
