Is the Powerpro coming?

Post by easterngray »

The posts that announced the Powerpro have been removed, and the end of summer is here - Is the Powerpro era at hand?

If we were in good times, I believe the answer would be a resounding "YES". But these are NOT good times. Therefore, I shall not be surprised if the announcement is SLOW in coming. Remember, there are two huge hurtles that must be overcome. One is financial and the other is technological and Shopsmith is not necessarily in total charge of either at this time. I believe that patience is the key, reinforced with a bit of faith.

Again none of us can do anymore than speculate and to what end?

I would imagine Shopsmith is doing everything possible to make it happen and to happen before the Christmas buying season, but that is just a guess.

Check this site and if your signed up for e-mail specials check them and you will find out the status along with the rest of us as soon as Shopsmith announces it.

See this is the kind of crap that happens when people speculate. Unless Headstock is Folkerth in disguise, which I really doubt, this comment is meaningless.

Let us wait and see, besides what difference does it make we all can still make sawdust with or without it.

I agree. Knock off the speculation! When the new headstock is available, great! Quit the rumormongering and find something else to do with your time.

Yes, it's coming guys. Bob just asked me to design the labels earlier this week and I'm on it. Can't tell you when, though. Still sworn to secrecy.

With all good wishes,
Nick

Thank you, Nick. It is good to know that you are there for whenever we begin to falter.
