table height adjustments
Delivering Precision Depth Dadoes, Grooves,
Finger Joints & Molding cuts -- plus lots more !
Make no mistake about it... this is an amazingly simple (and handy) Accessory that truly belongs in every Shopsmith-based workshop.
Weighing-in at a hefty 22 ounces and measuring about 2-1/4" in diameter, it's made of precision-machined steel then given a protective black oxide coating.
Just slip it over the front (operator-side) table tube on your Mark 7 or Mark V with the narrow ring "up" and you're ready to make micro depth-of-cut adjustments from a few thousandths to about 7/8".
Here's How it Works:
Position your stop collar a couple of inches above the top of the table carriage and tighten the locking screw. Set the table height for your operation to within 1/4" or so of where you want it.
Set a gap of between 3/8" to 1/2" between the rings, then loosen the setscrew and drop the collar down until the bottom of the collar touches the top of your table carriage (be sure to clear all sawdust and debris away from the top of the table carriage). Tighten the setscrew.
Make your micro-adjustment by rotating the bottom portion (the wide ring) clockwise or counter-clockwise, as required. A single 360-degree turn of the adjustable ring provides 1/16" of adjustment.
Here's How You'll Use it:
You'll use it for making incremental table height adjustments when sawing dado or groove cuts, cutting tenons, forming finger joints or when using the molding head for making decorative cuts in workpiece surfaces.
You can also use it to set extension table heights... to micro-adjust the in-out position of your worktable and rip fence in relation to the quill when drilling, shaping, routing, hollow chisel mortising or drum sanding... or for Special Purpose Tool alignments, plus under-table routing while using the speed increaser.
