    Question Shopsmith Woodworking Machine

    G'Day all

    Hi I'm a new member.......... what a great site!

    I need your advice.

    I have Shopsmith 10E serial number 157.
    It is in reasonable to good condition sitting in a garage doing nothing, does anyone know if this would be worth anything or should I just throw it out, the missus is on my back about it and wants to actually put car in the garage! How rude!
    Happy for any feedback.

    Cheers

    Wombat

    Hi Wombat...don't be too hasty on throwing the 10ER away. If nothing else it makes a great disc sander.

    That's pretty much my Shopsmith is relegated to...disc sanding, and on occasion I'll pop a buffing wheel on.
    Cheers,
    Ed

    Do something that is stupid and fun today, then run like hell !!!

    I have a Mk V, it is just used as a saw bench now.

    I'll say, time to put your foot down mate. Welcome to the forum. Gotta go, wife just told me to do the washing up.
    Reality is no background music.

    I'd come and pick it up. I like them. If only you were a bit closer.

    If it 'goes' and has all its pieces, then there is always a market for them, you just have to figure out a price - EBay is one possibility to get some estimates of what you could sell it for, but things do go for crazy amounts on EBay .

    Every few months someone will post hereabouts about getting one. They are no longer imported to Oz & the current US model is the Mk.V.
