Re: GREAT to have you back
It is truly great to have the Forum and Shopsmith back. Moving forward I hope this can be a place where questions can be asked and answered. Ideas can be shared. All of this with the understanding that there are no "dumb" (although I dislike using that term) questions or comments. Even things asked and answered before can and should be treated with respect. It can be difficult for new and even long-time members to find older posts. The Forum is a great resource for new and longtime members alike, so let's move forward with a welcoming community of Shopsmith users.

Re: GREAT to have you back
Yes, indeed! Happy New Year to all, and to Andrew Deutsch in particular. I wonder, realistically speaking, whether there is anything that we could do as a community to help? I am sure that we all have suggestions, but ...
Re: GREAT to have you back
Having the forum back is a pleasant surprise. Kudos to the new ownership!

Re: GREAT to have you back
This is great that the New Owner ( Andrew Deutsch ) allowed the forum to be revived.
I am excited about all the changes he spoke about in the interviews on U tube.
