Welcome aboard Claus. I just joined the forum myself. I have had my SS for about 3yrs now. But I was always traveling with the Navy and could never really put up shop. I hope to now. And soak these guys for all the knowledge they got..

Welcome to the forum Claus. Be sure to insert where you live on the Shopsmith Map. Follow This Thread for instructions. I would like to invite all the newly registered to do the same. It is nice to see where everyone lives.

Welcome Claus, where in KC are you located? I grew up in Merriam Ks. and my brother still lives there. My Mom and Dad live in Mission Ks. now. My old neighborhood in Merriam is now a Mall. I get up there two or three times a year. I am always finding SS used up there. Picked up 5 ERs up that way and Dad said he was done storing them for me so guess my buying is over for now.
Welcome to the group and looking forward to your work.
Thanks and Happy New Year

I am having a little trouble finding the model number on my SS, i can only see for sure it is a MARK V. Should it say on the same plate?? I can find the serial number and Model number. Any one to the rescue???
