Can someone tell me if the following item on eBay is complete as pictured and how is it attached to an SS or is it? Any other information would be appreciated.

Thanks.

It is the older style Over arm router also called the overarm pin router. (I've been known to call it the overhead router - my bad!).

It is missing the Shopsmith table and insert. Don't know if it is missing minor parts. Check out this thread. Especially Reible's post! http://www.shopsmith.net/forums/showthr ... arm+router

If you have an hour or so to read and look at pictures - do a search for overarm router.

Thanks Charlese. Sounds/looks like more than I am willing to or capable of dealing with.

By the way, when did you move to Four Corners?

I'm still here in Lancaster

Now I see - My push pin has gotten moved to the four corners. Glad I'm not responsible for that!

Just looked at the Shopsmith Google map and it looks like your marker is at Four Corners.

That's a complete first generation OPR. Looks to be the only item missing is the pins. Pins can made from dowels or sourced from any hardware store if your resourceful. The base is adaptable to any undermount router table if one so desired. Looks to be in good shape for it's age. I'd be tempted to bid if I didn't already have two.
