It has already been taken down. That was a super deal. But, I found this the other day that would make me happy if I had the money and need for another machine.

I saw this and wondered how can a Shopsmith sit in a box for 21 years.

Exactly. It would be like receiving a new one, but I really wonder what has happened to the machine. It's amazing that the legs to the table are still wrapped. To get it, set it up and clean it up, maybe replace the aged belts, might be like getting a new one from 20 years ago. LOL

I wouldn't even be afraid of the belts... My 1988 510 still has the original belts on it and it has had a fair amount of use.
