This is the machine that was used to teach me wood working starting in 1952. Lots of folks bad month the Shopsmith. This machine has a small foot print, is versatile, and my challenge to the nay sayers is to show me a finished product that is any the less for having been made with a Shopsmith. I have three of them in my shop, all of the next generation after the 10ER..
Every Shopsmith owner, and all wood workers should have this book.
