Help. What Are These Parts That Came With My SS 10E?

Post by joelgardner »

So my old 10E came with a box of goodies. I could identify some of them , but these are the hold outs.

How many can you identify?

Help me out by giving me the number and where it goes or what it does.

Thank you!

Observations:
5 and 6 are identical except 5 also has 2 washers and a nut.
10 looks like an adapter maybe?
2 might be a random piece of hardware that fell in the box 🤷‍♂️

5 and 6 are universal arbors. 6 is missing some washers.

7 and 8 are the posts that go on the wood aux table to hold the fence on the table.

9 is the stop rod that screws into the carriage to butt up against the head stock to center the blade in the insert.

To my knowledge none of the rest are 10E parts.

Is 10 made of brass or copper? Just from the side it looks a lot like a torch tip. The shadow shows an opening at the end by those holes on the side.

I am guessing the hole in these attach to the same shaft the drill chuck and everything else does, and then you use them to bolt on whatever attachment with the washers, sleeve, and nut?

And then these things are to attach and set the height of the table saw extension table?

My SS was used as a dedicated upright drill press for years before i got it, so some of the other configurations are still a mystery. Are you saying this thing assists with the table saw in some way?

Thanks edma194!

Ah, the ol' Shopsmith torch attachment 🤣

It really could be an old torch tip, here is a better pic

Definitely brass, the hole on the larger end is threaded like it had a locking screw at some point. That is why i thought maybe an adapter, but brass would be an odd choice for that...

Those vent holes do kinda maybe look torchy though

Looks like an arbor bolt, but that doesn't make sense on an SS. Maybe it is just a bolt 🤷‍♂️

Is obviously a handle for tightening a nut inline. It reminds me of a small version of the one that controls the saw table tilt -

Could it go to something else like the saw guard maybe?

The piece with the flange and taper is cast steel and looks like it has been hit on the other end with a hammer before.

Thanks again for all the help today!

It looks very similar to the soldering tip for an old Bernz torch shown at this site. The 4th closeup pic shows this kind of part with the tip attached. Brass body torches used to come with a set of tips including a flame spreader and soldering tip.
