I just wanted to introduce myself, I've been avidly reading the forum's and trying to soak up as much of this wisdom as possible. I bought a 1960 Greenie last weekend and planned to pick it up this weekend and do some cleaning and maintenance/lube on it this weekend, but I don't think I'm going to get any maintenance done on it as I just bought a Mark VII and have to pick both of them up this weekend. I'll probably be asking lots of questions once I get them home.

Thanks

Welcome to the forum Greg. You couldn't find a bunch with more knowledge that they are willing to share. I am sure you will find the answer to any questions you have, and a good time too.

Just a note, WE like pictures of 'new' tools and that go with questions if you can do that.

Welcome to the forum. I hate to put you on the spot right away but since you are picking up a Mark V11 check out this thread and see if you can help robertk. https://forum.shopsmith.com/viewtopic.php?t=3875 Seems like the current group of gurus are stumped. Maybe you guys can help each other out. If you fix the problem then you will be the new Mark V11 gurus!:)

Glad you decided to join
