My Growth Rings with Scott Markwood

SHOP NOTES: That's right, your Shopsmith has a hair trigger that ideally you'll be able to avoid, but if your quill return spring breaks or if the depth gauge gets out of alignment, you might not have a choice but to tempt fate. Ok, I'm being overly dramatic. Yes, you do need to approach this carefully, but it's totally doing about and you've got this!

I've created an Amazon list of many of the tools that I have found to be indispensable in my shop. http://a.co/0GLhuR2 You may have to click the "Filter" link to show the items in the list. I suggest sorting them by priority.

Here are links to a few of the products I used or discussed in this video:

This video from Jacob Anderson covers a bit more about replacing the quill return spring: https://youtu.be/YbHVTwSp9DI

In this video is from Mike, from the Shopsmith forums, Mike is replacing the quill return spring on a 1940's-50's 10ER. While the techniques aren't exactly the same, many of his tips are totally transferable to modern Shopsmith tools: https://youtu.be/S66Lf9VAjnA
